To know for sure if a transmission cooler will fit by your radiator, you will want to take a look at the space around your radiator and measure the available space. The measurements of the coolers are all listed on-line, so you will just want to cross-reference the measurements to ensure fit. Transmission coolers will work best when they are matched to the weight of the trailer the car is towing. The High Performance Class III Transmission Cooler, part # D13503 is made for trailers towing 3,500 to 5,000 pounds. While this cooler will provide excellent performance if there is room for mounting you may find that a smaller cooler like the High Performance Class I Transmission Cooler, part # D13501, which is designed for loads up to 2,000 pounds will fit better. It is matched to your 2006 Honda CR-V, so it should fit just fine, but if you want to measure the engine compartment to be sure, this cooler is 7/8 inch thick, 5-3/4 inches wide, and 11 inches long.
