Hi there,

So I'm thinking of installing an additional cooler to my Lancer 08 DE, because it doesn't have and I'm getting SLOW DOWN alarms when pushing the car over 140km/h.

So far so read, I found that because I don't have a factory cooler my CVT oil cooler/warmer has only 2 fittings instead of four. Here is the source where I found this:

Now I have to change my two fitting cooler/warmer (part number 2920A017):

with a one that has four fittings (part number 2920A141) like this one:

Along with installing of those coolers I'll change the CVT fluid as of course this maybe the main heating problem. But in order to be 100% sure that the problem is solved I'll also apply those coolers.

My question is does anyone done this already and please share opinions, as I'm not aware if this a simple switch/change of oil cooler/warmers. Is there a possibility my transmission to be different then the one for example in GTS where the cooler and the warmer with 4 fittings are factory installed?

Here is a post where a guy change/switch those warmers, but its for ES and main is DE:

before you go through the trouble of adapting a cooler try seeing if your car has this tsb already complied with.

The main problem mentioned in the tsb is there is too much cvt fluid in the cvt. the fix is to reduce the amount of fluid and install a new cvt dip stick that has cold and hot range markings rather than defined low and full notches. go to the dealer and have them preform that tsb if it hasn't. It should fix the issue.

if you do end up adapting a cooler it will work the same way for every early model lancer that doesn't already have one installed. so that guy's es would be the same as your de. you can probably piece together a kit cheaper than the rrm kit. all you really need is that 4 fitting cooler/warm an the rest can be what ever you can find.
