• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 2011 Chevrolet Traverse
  For your 2011 Chevrolet Traverse, I would recommend installing the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler, # D13503. The main difference between this transmission cooler and # D13303 is the design. The plate-fin design is more efficient that the tube-fin design because they force fluid between much smaller plates that agitate the fluid. The fluid leaving the plate-fin style is cooler because the smaller, flatter plates allow more fluid to contact the aluminum surface inside the...

  A transmission cooler is always a good idea if you are towing. Overheating is one of the biggest causes for transmission failure because your transmission relies on the transmission fluid to stay cool. The added stress from towing a trailer on the engine and transmission will cause the transmission fluid to heat up more than normal. It is a good idea to get the largest transmission cooler possible because transmission fluid cannot be cooled too much, however, you will be limited by the...
