Where's the V12 Transmission Oil Cooler???
Can someone please tell me where's the Transmission Oil Cooler is located on the CL65? I've looked on EPC and it didn't help.

That diagram doesn't help.
There are around six heat exhangers up front, so it must be sandwiched in there out of sight.
As a result, I've had to settle for diluting the tranny fluid with clean fluid, then draining after driving on it a while. Not the best way to clean out the torque converter, but it'll have to do.

That's a lot to be packed in such a small area.

I've seen that one just where you described. I'll get the part number off of it tonight and see what comes up. It that's it, there's still chance I'll get the job done right. thanks

I guess this is about a W215 rather than a W216, right?
In which case, isn't the transmission cooler built into the primary engine water radiator? Two pipes going into the right hand side header tank?

Yes, i think the one you mentioned for W216,
the part # for the one i pictured is "220 500 06 00", shardul said it's Engine oil,
if there is no additional trans. cooler, Radiator side room will be the trans. cooler....!!

I've been wrong before, but isn't that the secondary engine WATER radiator?

I've been told that with the CL65, they both have the same motor.

Seems the trans. cooled through Radiator, no additional cooler, i'm i right...!?!

Bigger engine oil coolers are needed when you run higher revs, but that doesn't apply here. The 65 motor will generate more heat in both the engine rad and the IC HE. The latter is larger on the 65, which will tend to block air flow through the main rad, so those effects increase the load on the rad. This makes the aux rad more important, and less likely to be used for oil cooling.
Well, that's my reasoning....
