Bypass radiator/tranny cooler combo?
Hi all. I have a 2005 Yukon XL Denali and wondered if anyone else has had success doing a radiator bypass for the tranny lines, and just using an Aux cooler on the front? Issue 1: From the factory...

I think you are assuming too much.

Examples of a car with 74k miles having the issue.
Nissan did this on the Xterras for a few years too, then they fixed the problem by not routing it through the radiator. Nissans was a much wider spread issue, but it was a lot easier to bypass too with flex lines instead of stainless.
