Finally an aftermarket Transmission Cooler

Look what Rallitek is selling. I think this is much needed if we tow with the ascent. What are your thoughts.

I agree with Cosmo...I doubt there is much applicability/need for most Ascents because other than the Base trim, there's already additional cooling standard, but perhaps someone who is really pushing the limits for a special application.

I think one thing Subaru did badly in this situation is how they worded the owner's manual here. Every reference to towing says something like "if your vehicle is equipped with a transmission cooler, blah, blah, blah". Nowhere does it say which vehicles are/not equipped that way. The reality is that probably 5% of the Ascents on the road today aren't equipped with one, but I would guess 95% of owners honestly have no idea one way or the other about their own vehicle.

Not necessary for 99% of people who own a Premium, Limited or Touring. I've been discussing with RalliTEK what we really need for extreme off-roading, which is a temperature controlled fan on a cooler.


Agreed.

or you can add in-Line Thermostat Temp Switch for $80-100 more
