Great, thank you, do you know of a step by step guide so I don't screw up, also, with this in place, how much more fluid would it take please?

Bashy, if you are struggling with facilities, I may have the solution about 40 mins away. Cannot PM you, as I do not yet merit the provision.

Much appreciated, thanks but I've now bought all the required parts and tools needed, just waiting for the all to arrive now, my fluid has arrived but it does not say Aisin Warner 3309 on it, it's the same bottle but it's no longer on the list on the label, not sure if this is any good now

Been diving a bit deeper, what car and box do you have, mine already has an oil cooler behind the radiator as seen in the image below

Hello Bashy, First I must say you have really livened the forum up !! At least you are Trying ! O.K. my motor is a 2003 D5 with the Aisin/Warner 'box, only done about 180,000 miles (306,000 km) I installed the "new" cooler in front of the radiator/s , made so much difference . Keep at it !!

Ha ha, thanks Willow, I try lol

Ah, so yours didn't have one like what mine already has, I have the TF-80SC box and that's already got a cooler behind the main radiator, at the back. So with that in mind, I take it there is no point in me adding another or?

Both you and willow have the integrated oil cooler in the main radiator.

Willow has fitted an additional external oil cooler.

Ah ha, thanks, that makes more sense now, I thought it was separate to the main radiator see, if I paid more attention when working on the car, I would have known this lol. So of this next 20L gibbons flush doesn't not make any difference, I will look at doing the extra cooler, it's the name cooler that's thrown me, I call them radiators lol

Sommats gotta work before the summer else I ain't gonna like driving it...
