11" Wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep, efficient heat exchanger will prolong the life of your transmission and improve its overall performance. Specifically designed for vehicles with late-model, electronic overdrive transmissions.


Features:

  • Prolongs life of transmission
  • Improves overall performance
  • Prevents heat-related failures
  • Has furnace-brazed aluminum construction and 3/4" wide turbulator plates for more efficient cooling
  • Includes complete mounting kit, OEM spec hose with stainless steel clamps and Insta-dapt radiator adapter
  • Recommended for full-size cars, trucks and SUVs


Specs:

  • Inlets: 11/32" hose barb
  • Overall dimensions: 11" wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep
  • Distance between inlets: 10-1/4"
  • Mounting dimensions: 8" tall by either 5-1/4" or 6-3/4" wide
  • Hose length: 4'

Note: The Derale Insta-dapt radiator adapter fits most vehicles with 5/16" transmission lines, but not all. In some cases, additional fittings or alteration of the OEM lines or hoses may be required for installation.


One of the more popular cooling systems available, the radiator-style, plate-and-fin heat exchanger provides increased surface area so that fluids can spread out along the finned chambers to cool faster. In addition to the increased surface area, this cooler also features turbulator technology, whereby fluids are agitated continuously, not only to facilitate heat transfer, but also to prevent any undesirable drop in pressure.

  • Will a Derale Transmission Cooler Kit D13503 Work on a 2006 Nissan Titan Towing a 5th Wheel Trailer
    The Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit, item # D13503, will provide extra cooling to help keep your transmission at normal temperatures when towing. Whether or not any cooler will provide enough cooling depends on many factors specifically related to your vehicle and trailer setup. I did a bit of checking on the 2006 Nissan Titan towing capacities and found that the 2006 Titan is rated for somewhere between 9,200 lbs and 9,500 lbs Gross trailer weight, properly loaded...

  • Best Transmission Cooler For 2007 Honda Pilot 4WD
    Hey Michael, thanks for reaching out. For the 2007 Honda Pilot 3.5l V6, what I recommend is the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13503. This is a highly efficient class 3 cooler. Adding this will help your transmission perform better and help avoid any heat related failures. It will not increase your vehicles towing capacity, it will just help the vehicle handle the weight better. Take a look at the video I linked below. It shows an example of installation. Let...

  • Transmission & Oil Coolers for 2015 Ford Explorer
    To get your 2015 Ford Explorer ready for towing you can add both a transmission cooler and an oil cooler if you want. We offer individual coolers that can handle either oil or transmission fluid, and also 2-core combination coolers that can handle both. For an efficient Class III transmission cooler I recommend Derale's kit # D13503. I linked an installation video showing this being installed in an Explorer. You'll install this cooler on the transmission's existing return line where it...

    Hey Graham, thanks for reaching out! The Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13503 will fit your 2018 Honda Pilot 6-Speed just fine, yes. We actually have an installation video of this on a 2017 Pilot I'm adding to this answer page for your reference. Have you installed an additional cooler before?

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2011 Chevy Silverado
    You are a little on the warm side for your transmission fluid. If you can keep it under 200 degrees you will have the max life out of it. That being said transmissions really start to go downhill at 260 degrees. The Derale cooler part # D13503 with the install fitting part # D13018 is the most popular option for your 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500 and would work well. I attached an install video that shows the cooler installed in a similar GM vehicle.

  • What Do Class Ratings for Transmission Coolers Mean
    Transmission coolers like the Derale # D13503 that fits your 2013 Chevrolet Silverado with 4.8L V8 engine using adapter # D13035 are given a class rating to help customers select one. Because we are in the towing industry, our customers are used to seeing Class ratings on their trailer hitches, so this is an easy way to alert the customer as to which cooler is the most efficient for their towing needs. Therefore we use the Class rating to let customers know that if they have a Class II...

  • 2023 Honda Passport Touring Edition Transmission Cooler Recommendation
    Hey Bobert, thanks for the follow up question about your 2023 Honda Passport Touring Edition Canada EH! I recommend checking out the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets # D13503 for your towing application. We don't have any that we've confirmed to fit a 2023 Passport but coolers are essentially universal so you'll just need to make sure you have enough room for the 11" wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep cooler. The absolute best location for the cooler is in...

  • Which is More Helpful When Towing: Engine Oil Cooler or Transmission Fluid Cooler
    Transmission cooler is definitely more important than an engine oil cooler. Most modern vehicles have cooling systems that are very efficient and an engine oil cooler is not needed at all. In some cases they actually will slightly lower oil pressure so they really aren't recommended. Transmission coolers do help a ton to preserve the life of a transmission so we recommend them highly. Basically you can't over cool transmission fluid and the cooler it stays the longer the transmission lasts....

  • Is a Transmission Cooler Needed When Towing With a 2024 Subaru Outback?
    While a Transmission Cooler # D13503 is not going to be required on your 2024 Subaru Outback it will help protect your transmission from overheating. The cooler can help keep your transmission running cooler when towing especially in hilly areas which will also allow your transmission to last longer.

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2010 Honda Odyssey
    We don't offer the OEM Honda part, but we do offer aftermarket alternatives that would work perfectly. There's absolutely no reason why an aftermarket cooler wouldn't work just as well as the OEM unit. I'd recommend the Derale # D13503 transmission cooler, which installs as shown in the linked install video. Although a portion of the front of the vehicle needs to be partially dismantled to access the mounting location, the installation itself isn't too difficult, as you can see n the...

The Derale Transmission Cooler, part # D13502 is a plate-fin cooler that may be just what you are looking for. The biggest concern when installing coolers is the location and whether there is room for the installation. This cooler measures 11 inches wide x 7-1/4 inches tall x 7/8 inch deep.

  • Installing A Transmission Cooler On A 2017 Honda Pilot
    I called my contact at Derale Performance and they stated that they are not aware of any required software updates though they do recommend adding an additional 5-10 oz. of transmission fluid to the system. To be certain, I recommend asking your local Honda dealer if firmware adjustments are necessary. For a transmission cooler that will work with your 2017 Honda Pilot, I recommending using Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets part # D13503 as this is the...

  • Can a 2009 Pontiac Vibe Safely Tow a 1,500 Pound Boat Trailer
    Since you would be right at capacity I do recommend taking any measures feasible in lightening the load. That will make it that much easier on the vehicle. I do believe that properly equipped, the 2009 Pontiac Vibe will be fine towing the 1,500 pounds. Since you will not constantly be towing it up a steep ramp, and that aspect is only a small part of the journey, the Vibe should be just fine. For a trailer hitch, you can use # C12221 but it is for GT models. If you have a GT model then...

This is a plate-fin cooler that allows for heat distribution and increased air flow to cool your fluid. It is specifically designed for vehicles with late-model, electronic overdrive transmissions....

  • Transmission Cooler, 7-Way and Brake Controller Recommendation for 2022 Honda Pilot
    Hey Erastus, for a transmission cooler for your 2022 Honda Pilot the Derale part # D13503 would be an excellent choice that is larger in size and a very efficient style which will do a great job keeping the temps down. Then for a brake controller the P2 part # 90885 with the install harness part # 3070-P would be a great choice and for a 7-way kit you'd want the part # 118286 and you'd be set. Will you be doing the install?

  • Recommended Parts for Towing a Starcraft Antigua Trailer with a 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer
    The weight distribution you were looking at, part # RP66541, will carry over to a new F-150. You may need to get a different height shank or adjust head angle or spring bar tension, but everything else will be able to be used. Does the owner manual state the vehicle has different capacities with a weight distribution system? Some vehicles have two ratings listed in their owner manual. If the manual states different figures for weight distribution, please write back and let me know. If...

  • Suitability of Derale Transmission Cooler, Part # D13503, for 2010 Toyota Rav4 Limited V6
    Transmission coolers are not vehicle-specific, so you are free to select any one that will fit into the available space in front of your air conditioning condenser. In the world of coolers bigger is better. The particular Derale cooler you reviewed, the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Class III, part # D13503, is a substantial unit that measures 11 x 8-3/4 x 7/8 inches. This will do an excellent job of cooling your Rav4 transmission. It includes the Derale Insta-Dapt radiator adapter that...

  • Installation of Transmission Cooler and Thermostat on 2013 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.5L V6
    Derale Fluid Control Thermostat Kit w/ 3/8" NPT Ports # D13011 and the Transmission cooler # D13503 will work well on your 2013 Sienna. The thermostat is your fail safe, so I recommend putting it between your transmission and the secondary cooler. The thermostat will allow full oil flow whether the valve is open or closed so your transmission will get what it needs at all times and there won't be any pressurizing of hoses.

  • Transmission Cooler and Suspension Enhancement for a 2011 Toyota Sienna
    The information on how much weight your 2011 Toyota Sienna can carry should be in the owners manual. From what I found the front wheel drive version can carry 1,325 pounds to 1,660 pounds inside the vehicle. The all wheel drive version can carry 1,190 pounds to 1,375 pounds inside the vehicle. A rough estimate based on the weights you have given is a total of around 1,400 pounds. If you have a front wheel drive model then you should be fine. But on an all wheel drive model you will have...

  • Recommended Transmission Cooler for 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe
    For a towing application adding a supplemental transmission cooler to your 2008 Chevy Tahoe 5.3L V8 is an excellent way to reduce thermal stress and help prolong the life of your transmission. The OEM cooler (built into the radiator) is meant for normal driving but by itself it will not be able to match the combined cooling performance you'll get from a secondary unit. I recommend the Class III-rated Derale Series 8000 cooler # D13503 and Radiator Adapter Fitting # D13035 which avoids...

  • How to Mount a 7-Way Connector on a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder with the Curt Hitch # C13309
    If you were to install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13309 on your 2017 Nissan Pathfinder then you would need to mount the Curt T-Connector # C56357 directly to your rear bumper fascia using the mounting bracket # PK12711U. To avoid this you can use the Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58000 instead. Since the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76031 does sit below the rear bumper fascia you would be able to use the no-drill mounting bracket # C57202 along with the part # PK12711U. The Curt T-Connector...
