Transmission Cooling
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Econoline, 2005 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The transmission fluid cooling system, without an auxiliary transmission fluid cooler, consists of:
- an in-tank fluid cooler inlet tube
- a non-repairable in-tank transmission fluid cooler
- an in-tank fluid cooler return tube
The transmission fluid cooling system, with an auxiliary transmission fluid cooler, consists of:
- an in-tank fluid cooler inlet tube
- a non-repairable in-tank transmission fluid cooler
- fluid cooler hoses
- hose clamps
- an auxiliary transmission fluid cooler
- a fluid cooler return tube
The transmission fluid flows from the transmission (front fitting for TorqShift, bottom fitting for 4R70W), to the in-tank transmission fluid cooler, to the auxiliary transmission fluid cooler, if so equipped, and returns to the transmission (rear fitting for TorqShift).
For fluid cooler flow testing, and backflushing and cleaning procedures, refer to AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION - 4R70W/4R75W or AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION - 4R70W/4R75W .
