Other than the cooler that is on it from the factory???????????????

no, I believe the factory is routing through the stock radiator, I'm talking about adding a dedicated tranny cooler, usually just a small unit mounted infront of the radiator, I saw there is amber room behind the bumper to fit one in, just wanted to know if anybody done this. Sometime manufacturer offer the tranny cooler upgrade along with the tow package. I had one installed on my maxima and camaro few years ago to help cooling the tranny, the only downside is in winter it takes slightly longer to warm up the tranny fluid.

The six-speed automatic (U660E) in the V6 is a self-contained unit, which means the transmission does not use an external heat exchanger. This means the transmission does not have any cooler lines, which would make it impossible to install a conventional transmission cooler.
