Perfect timing with this info for me. Been a long term WAT customer, your’re serviced the trans in my ‘13 Hilux ever since I have had it and it has one of your coolers installed. Just upgraded to a 2019 Prado and You’re right, no trans dipstick and I can’t even detect a trans service in the service booklet. I’m local to you guys so will be calling soon for a trans service and cooler. Cheers

[@bigfellapaulie]

I recently bought a 2020 Hilux, so all this kit is on my list of must-haves.

[@Steve-ls5li]

Fitted the Oil Cooler, now the Lock Up Kit to my 21SR5 and all i can say is very simple and detailed instructions,Great work guys

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Great to hear Steve!

[@andrewmetford]

Great video and info guys. Much prefer the paper instructions. I put them into a clear sleeve booklet so I can use it at the car when doing the job, and not have to worry about oily hands.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday, this was a brilliant video, you guys really go the extra step with your products and stand by your word, I’d certainly like to see more videos like this for sure, cheers

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@john-davidcairns1615]

As a sparky I'm 33 always love to have a paper copy easy reference. Both options should be considered options

[@Solarlube]

Brilliant guys.

[@mattgorman7689]

sometimes a paperback is easier to read and see it all in one spot rather than scrolling up and down on your phone and going between 2 different documents to find out things

[@dawayneduffy3509]

Hi lads . Yeah another great video. Cool products 👍. & For me paper all the way.

[@chasp_0784]

Would love a deep pan, looks good boys, can’t wait to get my hands on these.

[@OUTBACKDiscovery]

Just had my cooler kit arrive for my fortuner The lockup kit for the fortuner is definitely a purchase I will be making Personally I much prefer paper instructions with the option of a qr code if you need a better quality photo rather then a printed one Can't beat old school paper instructions to follow

[@JXM777CG]

Bert and Ernie's really gotten into this automotive thing huh LOL

[@philyoulten8354]

Got a cooler on my 2020 dmax best thing i done

[@markorlando4817]

When I go to the website and I start to input my details, I get a pop up that won’t let me go any further unless I agree to sign up for marketing stuff. Very annoying.

[@viklund2725]

Why has my bright red ATF oil lost its color the last time I checked and has now become transparent like water after 3 years? feels good between the fingers and doesn't smell burnt, usually pulls carefully cart in other times calm state traffic

[@andreasmirow3913]

I have a 2017 8th Gen petrol 4.0-V6 Hilux with the same 6-speed AC60 Gearbox. Is it possible to use it there too?

[@richardwalsh5570]

Is lock up available for the 2022 Fortuner men ?

[@Steve-ls5li]

Fanbloodytastic!!!!!!

[@Davidsmith-mc2no]

Does the qr code take you to the video tutorial

[@mozzieridd3074]

Can you a Dmax one please???

[@twistedthrottle8513]

i cant even find filter for this A60 trans no one makes it aftermarket ,

[@deanbowell7501]

Another great Aussie company making our lives better. Question though, i have a 2011 Kluger "sealed for life" tranny with 200,000klms since new, no problems. But have heard if i change the fluid now, it could do more damage than good. True or False? Since dealers never ask to change auto fluid!

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

No such thing as a sealed for life transmission, that just means no dip stick (fill and check from under the car) and the dealer doesn't include in the service schedule so the services are cheaper. We recommend all transmissions are serviced every 40,000kms.

[@sheldonmcclaflin8904]

What do you think of adding a inline spin on filter kit. The filter is about 20 to 30 micron engine oil filter. One brand is by B&M racing. Thank you from Thailand.

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Not really required for the more modern autos but you can do as it won't hurt anything.

[@macca1590]

Is the temperature in the cooler line the same or different to what you would read on a scan gauge?

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

While there are slight differnces the scan gauge will work as long as you have the transmission temp as the highlighted item all the time otherwise useless.

[@krzysztoflipinski9691]

Hello, I am the owner of an Isuzu d-max 2020. My question is whether I can buy this cooling kit from you and what is its price. I'm from Poland

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Yes, you most certainly can and we have them on special at the moment. Here is the direct link and you can purchase direct on line as well, delivered to Poland. There is two different kits depending on what month in 2020 you have. automatictransmission.com.au/heavy-duty-transmission-coolers/

[@VideoShowMeHow]

Hey fellas, so the value body fits the Asin 6 speed eg 2021 dmax as well?

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Yes it does, here is the web link: automatictransmission.com.au/select-your-vehicle/isuzu/d-max/gen4-3-0l-turbo-diesel-with-6-speed-auto-from-july-2020/?make=Isuzu&model=D-Max&series=GEN4%203.0L%20Turbo%20Diesel%20with%206%20Speed%20Auto%20-%20from%20July%202020

[@overcars922]

Se le puede colocar a una Toyota prado 150 con caja de 5 velocidades una caja de 6 velocidades?

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

La conversión de 5 velocidades a 6 velocidades es muy difícil y también muy costosa, sería mucho más barato vender el auto y comprar un modelo posterior que ya tenga la transmisión de 6 velocidades.

[@arronjohnston742]

i'll never use slave codes (qr code) so personally i'd take the hard copy

[@hhhhhhhhhhhhvv]

How much

[@Steve-ls5li]

Do you have instructions to fit lock up kit, didn't see on website, keen to order one

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Just adding some polish to them and they will be up before the first kit ships

[@Steve-ls5li]

Awesome, ordered a unit today, keen to fit it.

[@chasespilsbury641]

Hey boys does this suit the transmission in a 2016 Hilux 4x4 with the 2.4L diesel engine?

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Yes it does and here is the web link. It just doesn't menstion 2.4L but I will correct that now. automatictransmission.com.au/select-your-vehicle/toyota/hilux/2-8l-turbo-diesel-6-speed-auto/?make=Toyota&model=Hilux&series=2.8L%20Turbo%20Diesel%20with%206%20Speed%20Auto

Paperless is the way to go

[@einfelder8262]

Not if you're in a location without internet, or with crap internet like in most of outback Australia. Paperless office fad died out 40 years ago...

[@AllTerrainAction]

Shouldn’t this also read Hilux and Fortuner 6 speed upgrades? Or are they different somehow? (Talking 2021+ facelift model onwards)

[@AllTerrainAction]

Never mind… your clarify further in the video intro. Update the title though!!

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

For the most part yes and even the lock-up is the same kit but we need to confirm the CANbus reads the same.

Hi guys what trans oil would you use in the asin 6 speed in a 2019/20 isuzu dmax

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Any brand full synthetic oil will be perfect Phil. You cat go wrong with full synthetic for the 6 Speed in the Isuzu.

A paper back please, trying to hold a mobile under a 4wd and work on something smashed phone paper stuff it in a gap and you can pull it out and read it with dirty hands.

[@freakyaussy]

I prefer paper instructions , I don't like handling my phone with dirty hands. I want to swap my manual to auto in my 2016 Hilux , Have you done any conversions ?

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

While it can be done, the cost to do so is far more expensive than just replacing the car with the same model Hilux that is already factory auto.

[@perpelle]

Paper all the way.

Yes the triton 6 speed is next on our list.

Yes we will be doing a kit later this year.

A 2005 Toyota Land Cruiser 100 series The Mighty fte wood lover to fit a lock up kit to it I think for me a paper copy with the instructions and photos would be more suited for me than a QR code easier to read we're not getting any younger you know we need glasses now

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

We have the Gen II manual lockup kits available now, but the automated Nomad kit is coming soon. In fact Cameraman Craig is trialling one in his 105 Landcruiser now!
