Skyline is on a distinguished road
AFAIK, virtually every car with an automatic transmission has a cooler built into the radiator. What's a little different on the X5 is the thermostat gadget located down in front of the A/C compressor. If your tranny is running too hot, perhaps the transmission thermostat is bad and not allowing the tranny fluid to flow into the radiator?
