Hey All,
Anyone know approx. how much labor it is to install an aftermarket transmission cooler like GoWesty sells? I've gotten estimates that it would cost $500-600 in labor and fluid alone?!
I've also found it hard to find a Eurovan mechanic in the LA area...
Thanks,
Alex

I think mine went in for $200. They were working on the transmission anyway.
HOWEVER
make sure the hose clams are tight. I had a failure after 5000 miles in which a clam slid off and sprayed my engine with fluid. I left me stranded.
It probably makes sense to check them occasionally too.
