T-TECH APPLICATION NOTES

General

The information in the following pages provides information for specific T-TECH applications. The information

provided here is listed alphabetically by vehicle manufacturer and vehicle type.

CAUTION: Some automobile manufacturers use snap type connectors on transmission cooling lines. To avoid

damaging the radiator, never remove the fitting from the radiator but rather use the proper disconnect tool to

remove line from fitting.

If a tool is not available, follow the cooler lines to a point where the line and a rubber hose meet and disconnect at

that point. Follow all directions for a proper service.

Typical vehicles utilizing snap type cooler line connections are Ford Taurus, late model Ford pick-ups and SUV’s,

Dodge trucks, most GM products after 2000 and Chrysler vehicles after 2004.

BMW

BMW FIT402

BMW Kit No. FIT402 looks like the Mercedes-Benz Fitting No. FIT322 but is somewhat larger.

CAUTION: These fittings are a matched set and must be kept together in the small plastic box marked FIT402.

Instructions

FIT402 is installed on the BMW as illustrated in Figure 53.

BMW 500 Series FIT407

CAUTION: These fittings are a matched set and must be kept

together in the small plastic box marked FIT407.

Instructions

1. The BMW 500 Series FIT407 utilizes an O-ring to

seal the line instead of the bullet style fitting used on

smaller BMW models.

2. Use the fittings in FIT407 the same way as the

fittings in FIT402 (see Instructions and Figure 53).

Extra O-rings have been included with FIT407.

Chrysler

CAUTION: Many Chrysler products use rubber hose to connect to the transmission cooler. The hose usually has

one or more plastic clips along the length to keep the hose away from pulleys, belts, etc. While doing a T-TECH

service, it is possible to dislodge the hose from the clips. Closely monitor the security of the clips and hoses during

T-TECH service to assure that the hose is not cut off by a belt or pulley after the vehicle is returned to customer.

Note: A number of Chrysler vehicles, including some Jeeps, require the vehicle to be in neutral while the

engine is running to develop vehicle transmission pressure. The T-TECH exchange process simply will not

work unless vehicle transmission pressure is developed.

Many late model Chrysler vehicles utilize Internal Quick Connect (IQC) Fittings to join the transmission cooler line to

the radiator. For application instructions related to these vehicles, see GM Instructions, page 27.
