Auxiliary Transmission Cooling for Ford Ranger Raptor 3.0L
The Fenix Transmission Cooler Kit is a dedicated auxiliary cooling upgrade engineered for the 2022–2025 Ford Ranger Raptor 3.0L turbo petrol. Developed in partnership with CTB Performance, this kit is designed to address the well-documented issue of elevated transmission temperatures in Next-Gen Ranger Raptors—whether towing, off-roading, or running performance modifications.
How This Transmission Cooler Kit Protects Your Raptor
High transmission fluid temperatures can quickly lead to reduced fluid life, increased wear, and even premature failure of critical gearbox components. The Fenix auxiliary cooler kit helps solve this by providing up to 15% lower transmission temperatures, as verified by dyno testing from both Fenix and Hoonies Adrenaline. By bypassing (not removing) the OEM oil cooler, this kit adds substantial cooling capacity while retaining the factory system for added reliability.
Where This Upgrade Is Most Useful
This kit is ideal for Ford Ranger Raptor 3.0L owners who:
- Regularly tow heavy trailers or caravans
- Take on demanding off-road tracks or expedition routes
- Have performance upgrades or run tuned vehicles
- Want to maximise gearbox reliability in Australian conditions
Whether you’re preparing for remote touring, heavy-duty work, or spirited driving, this cooler kit is a practical investment in long-term transmission health.

Installation and Compatibility Notes
This Fenix kit is engineered for direct fitment to the 2022–2025 Ford Ranger Raptor 3.0L turbo petrol (P703 / RA). Installation does not require removal of the factory oil cooler; the system is bypassed for enhanced cooling. All brackets, hoses, and hardware are included for a complete installation. For best results, professional installation is strongly recommended. You will need 1 litre of manufacturer-specified ATF to top up after fitting.
Note: This kit is not confirmed for other Ford Ranger or Raptor variants. Always check compatibility before purchase, especially if your vehicle has aftermarket modifications.
Why Transmission Cooling Matters for Performance and Reliability
Modern turbocharged engines and automatic transmissions generate significant heat, especially under load. Without adequate cooling, transmission fluid can degrade, leading to erratic shifting, reduced performance, and costly repairs. The Fenix auxiliary cooler kit helps safeguard your gearbox, letting you tow, tour, and explore with confidence—even in harsh Australian conditions.
