Airtrek Turbo Gearbox

[Poacher]

Hi Guys,

Just some advise. I am going to flush my gearbox soon. Is there any recommended good quality transmission oil to use and any additives? Also If i want to install a second trans cooler (and disconnect it from the radiator) what is the best location for this? Can it be put on the opposite side of the 1st trans cooler? I am running my aircon and a front mount so no room at the front really....


Also does someone have a how-to write up for increasing the line pressure on the transmission?

Thanks!

We mostly use Diaqueen ATF. Stock fluid from factory.

Thanks. No other additives? Also, is there a filter that needs replacing behind the pan sump?

Never use additives. Original is sufficient. I know most car has ATF filter nut never change before tho.

i used Redline ATF oil for my first 20000km and Motul ATF oil for now.
Both served well.
