Transaxle Cooling - Aisin AW21: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Milan, 2010 Lincoln MKZ, and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
These vehicles are equipped with an internal transmission fluid cooler. The transmission fluid cooler is mounted in the engine radiator tank. During operation, transmission fluid travels from the transaxle to the transmission fluid cooler, then back to the transaxle. The transmission fluid cooler transfers heat from the transmission fluid to the engine coolant.
