CONSTRUCTION
The CVT fluid warmer (transmission oil cooler) uses engine coolant that has been warmed by the engine to warm up the CVT fluid quickly and maintain a high CVT fluid temperature (within limits). Consequently, the friction losses of the CVT are quickly reduced, thus improving fuel economy.
After warming up the CVT fluid, the engine coolant continues to flow the CVT fluid warmer (transmission oil cooler) to cool down the CVT fluid.
