Can you guys please... make a video about the bypass valve piece.

This will fit a 2016 silverado, 5.3, z71?. I have painted metal bumpers on mine, i assume the grille will be a little easier to get off?. I have no plastic pieces on my bumper.

[jeffsikkema]

I did my install today on my 2017 GMC Sierra and after watching the video the part thats the hardest is getting the damn trim off between the bumper and grill. Sort of skip through that on the video. A little more details on removing the trim would have been nice.

I have a 2016 Custom with the 4.3, my radiator is different then the one in the video. Is there a kit for my truck..?

[bigchungus]

Idk why but my transmission on a 2015 Chevy 1500 gets hot. I put in a new thermostat that activates at 154, I changed the fluid and yet it still gets hot. Anyone have any idea’s? My trans isn’t slipping and my rps ain’t bouncing around like the TQ is going out.

[brianrangel]

This unit would of course be an add on aid aside from the original method of cooling oil through AC condenser correct? Ultimately having two methods of cooling oil ? Meaning when installing the mishimoto oil cooler, fluid will still flow through AC condenser and this unit in the video correct ?

[funnyp]

Hoping this is the answer to my transmission slipping and not going into gear😢 coolant is also dropping and overheating. If not gotta get a new transmission or torque converter.

Installed the transmission cooler today without the bypass valve delete and went on a long highway drive with 90 degrees outside. Transmission temperature was in the 180-199 without and towing. Is this normal temp for the 2014 silverado 5.3 4x4?..

[seangowan]

Can you make a transmission cooler for the 99-06 gm 1500 trucks and suvs?

[wbenn]

Is this compatible with the 2018 silverado 1500 e-assist model?

[daveschannel]

Does this kit also work on a 2015 1500 Silverado with the H.D. cooling (RPO option L83) that also has the crappy aux cooler/a.c. condenser POS design. I would like to eliminate running through the radiator and aux cooler and just run it straight to your solid looking cooler assy. to clean up and simplify the setup as well as future serviceability? These Radiators almost always need to be replaced annually for core failure even after installing a redesigned thermostat that was supposed to fix this issue and doesn't!

[nivingewarges]

On a 2015 Escalade, would this go in front of the radiator just like this video? I saw another video for the Escalade and they installed it behind the radiator.

[seangowan]

Is this for both 6-speed and 8-speed automatic transmissions?

[airjer]

The transmission fluid does not appear to go in the radiator, it appears to be the top few rows of the ac condenser. GM's design of this is a bean counters wet dream, but doesn't work. Towing my trailer up mountain grades in 4HI I've seen my temps raise up to 285 degrees, somewhere in that region the TCM loses power and you get a MIL light and until you reset the DTC's and allow the trans to cool it will not allow you to drive anywhere. I just ordered my Mishimoto cooler and I'm going to bypass the thermostat and change the fluid and filter. I have 72k on my truck.

[MrHardy]

How much more fluid should I prepare to add for a 18 Silverado 8 speed trans

[joseguevara]

Would this be the same process for a 2016 Chevy Tahoe ?

[anthonyjorge]

Are this transmission cooler can fit 2006 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab 5.3 v8 4l60e?

[bryanadair]

What about the bypass valve part that comes with the kit?

[UGHH_PPL]

How much does it reduce the temp? I'm running 197° at the hottest after driving 3 hours nonstop . How many labor hours would be billed for the service and where can I purchase the cooler ?

[steveeddy]

How do I get part number for this kit, I have 2017 silverado k1500 5.3l flex fuel
