Which Transmission Line Should The Derale Transmission Line Connect To on 2011 Buick Enclave?
Question:
Hi I just bought the recommend cooler from you. I just connected it to the lower line running to transmission on driver side, was this the wrong line? I’m thinking I may have been connected to coolant and not transmission. 2011 buck enclave.

Expert Reply:
The lower transmission line on the 2011 Buick Enclave is the hot line coming from the transmission. You want to connect the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler # D13503 to the upper transmission cooler line returning to the transmission. The Derale Snap-In Radiator Adapter Fitting # D13035 will allow you to tee into this line at the radiator. I have linked an install video below showing the install on a 2017 GMC Canyon as it uses the same adapter and will show you how to attach it around the 9:00 minute mark of the video.
