Trans oil cooler

[Joelchester]

Ok then ,840ci 97’ ,my (I think) oil cooler has been leaking for some time,think I saw in wheeler dealers (uk tv show) that they go on one of the union pipes,so,can it be fixed ? Or is it get a new one ? And, where’s cheapest (is it an 8 part only ?)Also,my mate runs a garage,and he said he a merc that the trans oil cooler went on and Merc garage told him to bypass it with a pipe,which he did, they reckoned that in a cold country like the uk, they are fine,and it was...so...what do you lot reckon ?..cheers Joel.

The repair depends on what is truly leaking. If it is the cooler itself, I would replace it with new, either factory or aftermarket. There are O rings where the transmission cooler lines connect to said cooler, and sometimes new O rings are the repair. Heat is the number 1 killer of automatic transmissions, so I would fix it.
