BMW 330i Auto Transmission Thermostat broken ( and now gone)
Discussion
The expansion tank cracked my on 330i auto
I replace it, but broke what I thought was a second thermostat at the bottom of the expansion tank during the process.
As it was broken, I took out the plastic sleeve and the spring to ensure nothing nasty floated around the cooling system
Since, I have found out that this part is the Automatic transmission thermostat, which currently is not present
My Question.
As this part is for regulating and heating (in cold weather) the transmission fluid, will the transmission be effected in anyway?
If its just for warming the oil I cant there would be much wrong, just go easy for 5 mins
BUT… does the transmission run at a cooler temperature than the coolant temp?
