Hey guys, I'm new here but am in need of some sage advice from some altima gurus. I'm installing a transmission cooler but am not sure which line in the transmission is the return line so I can jump in. Anyone have a diagram or pic where they can point it out to me? If anyone shoots me the info I'll post the install for everyone in the future so this question gets squashed. When I did some searches I couldn't find anything on this to help anyone, if someone has please direct me and I can go get a hand lol thx!

Why are you installing a transmission cooler? Is the transmission overheating? If so, seems like a problem which should be addressed by the manufacturer. Just wondering.

DO NOT add any sort of aftermarket transmission cooler to your car. Especially if your CVT is still under the manufacturers warranty.

If you don't abuse the car like towing, it's not necessary to add a transmission cooler. Like other people have said, it voids the factory warranty.
