Fitting an aftermarket ATF cooler to your automatic

[Wobbly Dave]

This modification applies to 850, 70 series, using the Aisin-Warner 50-42 LE gearbox. I have no idea if this will work on phase 2 cars - V70 new shape and S60 or any of the 40 series.

I have been asked on many occasions recently to fit the aftermarket solution I developed - shown in this thread....

It is not something that I wish to keep going with so I thought it best if I told you all how to do it, where I got the parts from and what's involved.

I now personally believe that with discount available through Marshall's that you'd be better off getting the Volvo OEM additional cooler if you want.

I am not certain that the Volvo one is as high a quality but it is bigger and comes with brackets and pipework and instructions included.

First off you will need the return feed pipe (a spare one is best - contact Salvo) that runs from the stock ATF cooler (lower junction) back to the top of the box....
