Hi,
Considering fitting an extra oil cooler for my auto transmission.
Hopefully getting a small caravan soon and all the reading up suggests an extra cooler is a good idea.
Anyone have experience of this, wondering if this is big enough:

From what I've read it is probably best to plumb in in series with the standard cooler so the oil goes through both. Anyone know if it should be fitted before or after the standard one, or does it make no difference?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Auto Transmission Extra Oil Cooler
That would do the job very well, different in style to what we use but perfectly good to use. Rig in inline with the existing cooler & based on another forum members experience, remove both pipes from the gearbox & blow through them with an air line in both directions (lower the pressure to about 50psi if you can) before you disconnect it from the rad. He had a lump of crud in his cooler or lines.
