Expert Reply:
As long as the transmission on your 2016 Acura MDX has external lines that run to a factory cooler like what is often in the radiator of a vehicle you can install an aftermarket cooler. They are universal fit items though so you don't necessarily have to worry about your vehicle being in our transmission cooler fitguide.
You just want to go with the biggest one that will fit the area in front of your radiator. A very popular option is the # D13503 which measures 11" Wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep. I attached an install video for this product for you to check out as well.
