I've removed the old hose and some of the metal tubing that lead to the cooler. In this process, I bent the cooler itself and broke it :( (see pics) Now of course, I need to replace the whole trans cooler. I mean to replace the sawed-off metal tubing with rubber tubing. Now, I've never removed a transmission oil cooler before and am stuck on how to do it. Will I have to remove the fan assembly and radiator just to get to whatever holds the trans cooler in place?

They use plastic holders that pass right through the radiator to hold them attached.They are one time use and will have to be cut to remove the cooler. The new cooler should come with some new ones to attach it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. gogamish New User Jun 4, 2014, 12:44 AM Post #3 of 5 (1806 views) Re: 1999 Plymouth Breeze 2.0L Transmission Cooler Removal Sign In Thanks for the info. This means that the plastic holders pass through the water cooler and then also through the air conditioning radiator? In essence, I would need to remove the fan assembly in order to reach where these holders end up? Thanks!

They could have ended them at the back of the condenser. You can also if it's easier. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. gogamish New User Jun 4, 2014, 3:28 AM Post #5 of 5 (1794 views) Re: 1999 Plymouth Breeze 2.0L Transmission Cooler Removal Sign In In Reply To You can also if it's easier. What do you mean here? I looked through the condenser fans to see if I could find where the holders come out, but I couldn't see to much as the blades and plastic fan housing is quite large. Maybe the holders only go through the water cooler and not the condenser? I'll have to investigate further. This morning I went to the store and bought another cooler that comes with a mounting kit. I'll see about it today after work.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
