Tips for maintaing the ATF cooler in place
Hey all !
After 6 months of hard work, overhauling the whole suspension (whole rear and front) and the engine, I finally got to ride my 1998 E46 323i !
The pleasure however didn't last long because after a couple of accelerations at high RPM, my ATF cooler blew off.
My question is : how to avoid this happening again ? Because when plugging the ATF cooler back into the expansion tank mounting bracket, and engaging the clip, I felt like the clip wasn't holding much (and it looks like my intuition was right). Are there any well-known ways to attach it more firmly ? Zip ties ? Hose clamps ? This could help other people since I've seen numerous other posts about the ATF cooler falling.
A few photos of that beauty attached :)
If anyone is interested I can also make some posts about the jobs I did, I got a ton of photos :)
