Will a Bigger Transmission Cooler Fit on My 2015 Nissan Rogue?
Question:
Just wondering which would be the preferred cooler for the 2015 Nissan Rogue SV. I see that D13501 is shorter than the other model, but Im just wondering if the longer model would fit. I know its recommended to go bigger where we can!

Both transmission coolers parts # D13503 and # D13501 work for your 2015 Nissan Rogue SV. Transmission coolers aren't vehicle specific so I always suggest to get the biggest cooler you can fit. The bigger cooler has more surface area to cool the transmission fluid and there is no problem with having cooler fluid.
You need to test and see if there is enough room for the bigger cooler to be installed. To test the fit, I suggest using cardboard and making a mock up cooler.
The dimensions for part # D13503 are 11" wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep
The dimensions for part # D13501 are 11" wide x 5-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep
Transmission coolers are mounted on the front of the radiator and space can be tight on newer vehicles. If you can fit the # D13503 then it's the one I'd choose.
