topless 5 Report post Posted January 6, 2006 Does the radiator have any a/c or other cooling duties???If the car is auto, there could be a cooler for the trans oil inside one of the tanks of the radiator. Some cars run a separate trans oil cooler outside of the radiator, but normally only high performance cars. Apart from this, the radiator only cools the engine. Aircon has a completely separate sealed system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
