Can a kinked trans cooler line cause engine overheating?
I’m trying to think about this, and it doesn’t make sense that a hot transmission would be related to an engine running hot. But I found that one of my transmission cooler lines is kinked. I don’t think the flow is completely obstructed, but it’s definitely being choked.
Obviously I’ll replace it, but I’m just curious as to whether this would affect engine temp at all, or just the transmission?
