After roughly 800klms towing our 1.5t camper over easter I'm happy to report the trans temp didn't go above 97 degrees C and this was up Cunningham range as well and this was pushing the car hard to see if would get hot. Also noticed the trans would hold into 5th longer and would even get 6th. Any one with the new 6 speed I strongly suggest fitting a secondary cooler to you trans as well. My last trip before cooler fitted i couldn't keep temps below 120 and would evem get 170 up ranges .Arb colour code deluxe bar, safari snorkel, lightforce venom HID's, GME uhf remote face, redarc tow pro, redarc bcdc 1240, pioneer platform, 40" curved light bar, dual battery, 3" SS exhaust, EGR mod, trans cooler upgrade, provent catch can, scangauge 2, diesel care secondary fuel filter, Tin's bash plates and actuator gaurd, 2in Bilstien and kings lift,

Don't understand why Toyota don't add a radiator to the autos ATF on the diesel models, like they have on the petrol auto models.
Regardless of what Toyota Aust states, the ATF needs changing on a regular basis, especially if towing. Windsor Toyota in western Sydney will change the ATF without question, and have already done so on my petrol auto at my request, whereas some Toyota dealers will not change the ATF at all.

Cruiser wagons have traditionally had much more beefier autos than the smaller Prado.

100 series transmission is the same as the Prados. 200 series has about 50% more torque. Makes sense to me that they are now different units.My 150 build - http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27423-A-Random-approach-to-a-Bluestorm-150-GXL-D4D-automatic
