I hope this is in the right section, I have 04 6 atx and there is tranny fluid in my radiator. I know the trans cooler is inside the radiator so i assume the trans cooler is leaking. Time for a new radiator?? Do i need to flush out the block somehow since there is tranny fluid in the coolant?? Any help would be great!!:swearin:

:confused: :eek:

It looks there are two transmission cooler lines that are on the actual radiator.. (attached image from manual).. if its getting into the coolant, I would assume theres something wrong with the radiator.. I would get that Fixed asap and flush both the Coolant and Transmission.. you definitely DO NOT want coolant in your trans as it will burn up the friction material very fast..

Put a red square around the lines
