I just did a tranny flush the other night. Look by the radiator in front of the tranny, it should be one of those lines, im at work and cant look at my car or get under it at that haha,

But basically its right infront of the tranny, and i suppose im rambling. Just look and feel around the top of the tranny by the radiator you'll find it

there are 2 lines. i want to know which line is the input for the radiator and the output line. i got an external trans cooler. i just want things to get things done right.

Ok so this may again not work on the 03 but on my 01 theres a trans cooler already under the car dead center at the rear of engine craddle. Couldn't you just disconnect that and replace it with your new one?

Maybe a Hanes manual would tell you?

that would be the engine oil cooler.

actually i read the haynes manual 3 times and it doesnt tell you which one is the input/output line.

i guess it doesnt matter which one you use then. we have like 2000 members and no one can figure this out, even the people over on the other .org cant.

thanks anyways.

if your standing in front of the engine i think the return 1 is the 1 to the far left.

geeezzzz, look dude to make things a bit easy the return line from the tranny to the radiatore it the top line sitting on top of the tranny. the tranny has two lines one on top/out and the one in the bottom with fluid going in the tranny

when you look at the car from this position shown in the pic you will see the return line to the radiatore on top..
