CSF Replacement Oil Cooler 08-14 Chevy Cruze Sonic Aveo

The CSF replacement oil cooler for 2008–2014 Chevrolet Cruze, Sonic, Aveo and Astra models regulates transmission fluid temperature by replacing the factory liquid-to-liquid cooler, ensuring consistent fluid conditioning during both warm and cold ambient conditions.

This replacement unit mirrors the factory design — it uses the engine cooling system to cool transmission fluid during warm outside temperatures and to warm the fluid during cold outside temperatures, preserving proper operating viscosity and supporting reliable transmission function across a broad range of ambient conditions.

• Direct-fit design: Matches factory liquid-to-liquid architecture for straightforward installation and retention of original plumbing and mounting points, reducing installation time and eliminating the need for system redesign.
• Integrated cooling path: Utilizes the engine's coolant flow to manage transmission fluid temperature, maintaining intended thermal behavior as engineered for these vehicle models.
• Factory-equivalent compatibility: Designed specifically for 2008–2014 Chevrolet Cruze, Sonic, Aveo, and Astra transmissions that use the original liquid-to-liquid cooler arrangement to ensure correct function without modification.
• Mishimoto endorsement: Supplied by Mishimoto, a brand known for OEM-style replacement components and quality control procedures that emphasize fit, form, and reliable thermal performance in service conditions.

Why this matters: consistent transmission fluid temperature preserves hydraulic control characteristics, reduces wear from improper viscosity at extreme temperatures, and maintains predictable shift quality. Replacing a degraded factory cooler with a proper CSF replacement restores the intended thermal management path used by the vehicle’s transmission cooling strategy.

Compatibility note: This product is intended as a like-for-like replacement for the factory liquid-to-liquid transmission oil cooler found on the specified model years and body variants; confirm that your vehicle uses the factory cooler arrangement before purchasing.
