ATF Overheating Audi s6 2007

I haven’t searched it like that but I’ll try that now

Imo the aux trans cooler is better than the C5s that ran ATF lines to the radiator

I’m so confused by this transmission chaos I’m on the debating of replacing the whole thing

Tbh with you I don’t know what the hell to do

I may run it’s own radiator I don’t even know

I guess the process of elimination open that cooler up and if I find nothing I’ll do it’s own cooling system then if that don’t work I guess I’ll replace it

I made a discovery I tested the coolant pump and I noticed it wasn’t coming on so i after tested the connector to the coolant pump and nothing was coming through and the car isn’t saying any codes about it when I unhooked it and the relay is working to it

Scratch that the pump works so I guess I’ll remove the thermostat like I said before

The car is still overheating so I guess I’m going to remove the atf cooler next

Seems more like the atf cooler maybe clogged I sprayed water on it and no temperature drop

Removed both atf and gear cooler and both were fine I put them back in. Anyone have any other idea why is overheating?

Well everyone I’m mentally preparing myself for the inevitable and in that case does anyone know the studs I can buy for the exhaust since I’ll have to pull it off I did put a nut and bolt which was dumb and I guess I might as well fix it

Your gonna swap transmissions?

I already did I’m having a ton of trouble with the shifter i been screwing with it for hours I’m about to buy another one to replace it

I replaced the transmission within the next day I pulled the engine and day after that I hooked headers up and all that and today it was supposed to go in but the stupid shifter isn’t working right it has like no tension I think a clip or something pulled out cause I felt it pop out when I tested it.

So I ordered a new one

Oh shit what a terrible mess. If you didn’t already make sure you flush your coolant lines and your fluid lines.

The shifter has that ball fitting that snaps over the ball point did you loose the clip? You should have been able to bolt the bracket down it should be a 10mm bolt.

Also keep in mind you might have some issues with the TCU unit in the transmission. So keep your old one

Yep on the day of my birthday I ran to CT junkyard for a transmission for 800 took me 2 hours there and back

2 days later I did whole thing

I was trying to have the car done asap until that shifter fucked me the first time and again like whenever I dropped the engine that damn shifter is cursed and would always give me a problem

What a lovely week to being 19 and by the way if I change the shifter I’ll happily make a video of me destroying the old one with a sledgehammer

In for the vid…

That’s a lot of hussle to get Fd by the shifter cable… yuck

Yes and I did open it up I found out the spring which I assume is a tension spring was mangled all up on the inside of it
