Upgrading your Toyota’s automatic transmissions cooling system is a proactive step towards safeguarding your vehicle’s transmission from overheating and premature wear, ultimately enhancing its longevity and performance.
The transmission cooling system plays a critical role in maintaining optimal operating temperatures, especially during demanding conditions such as towing heavy loads or navigating challenging terrain.
By reducing the risk of overheating, an upgraded Toyota transmission cooling system helps preserve the integrity of internal transmission components, such as seals, clutches, and gears. This translates to smoother operation, reduced wear and tear, and ultimately, fewer costly repairs over the lifespan of your vehicle.
In addition to protecting your transmission, an efficient cooling system can also improve overall drivability and performance. By maintaining consistent fluid temperatures, the transmission can operate more efficiently, resulting in smoother shifts and optimised power delivery.
Overall, investing in an automatic transmission cooling system upgrade is a smart choice for any vehicle owner looking to enhance reliability, performance, and longevity, especially in scenarios where the transmission is subjected to heavy loads or challenging conditions.
If you’re seeking to enhance your Toyota’s performance, gain greater peace of mind, and desire increased longevity and satisfaction from your driving experience, a valve body upgrade is the perfect solution. Whether it’s for better handling on tough terrains or simply to extend the life of your vehicle, investing in this performance upgrade will give you the driving experience you desire.
It’s easy to take your 4WD’s transmission performance to the ‘next level’ with one of RHA Pro’s ultimate Valve Body Upgrades.
This precision re-calibration optimises the hydraulic system for fast, crisp shifts and supreme durability – exactly what you need for conquering off-road trails and towing challenges.
You’ll feel a direct, responsive experience behind the wheel. With minimised clutch slippage during gear changes, internal transmission components experience far less heat and wear, maximising the service life of your entire clutch system.
Optimised cooler flow circuits provide enhanced heat dissipation to keep transmission temps in the ideal operating range, even when pushing performance to the limit off-road or towing on steep grades.
And the precisely recalibrated hydraulics give you enhanced control on downhill stretches, allowing just the right amount of engine braking without overwhelming the transmission.
As engine performance mods alter the torque curve, they can negatively impact transmission behaviour and shift quality. The valve body upgrade re-establishes that rock-solid feeling in your Toyota by harmonising transmission operation with your engine’s new output characteristics.
Whether crawling over boulders or towing your toys, gain the confidence of a heavy-duty high-performance transmission tailored to deliver with this critical upgrade.
Upgrading your Toyota’s automatic transmission with a torque converter lock-up Control system offers control over your transmissions heat generation. In an automatic transmission, the torque converter is responsible for generating a significant portion of the heat, typically around 80-90% of the total heat produced.
This is because the torque converter relies on fluid dynamics to transfer power from the engine to the transmission, and during this process, the fluid inside the torque converter experiences friction and shear forces, leading to heat generation.
This heat production can be greatly reduced by manually commanding the converter clutch to its engaged state.
Another significant advantage is the ability to regulate engine braking. By selectively engaging the torque converter lock-up clutch, drivers can control engine braking during descents or deceleration, resulting in a more controlled and responsive driving experience, particularly beneficial when towing heavy loads or navigating steep terrain.
Whether prioritising performance, fuel efficiency, or smoother operation, drivers can adjust torque converter engagement to suit their preferences and driving conditions, optimising the overall driving experience. This upgrade also contributes to prolonging the lifespan of the transmission by reducing wear and tear associated with excessive slippage and heat buildup.
While your Toyota’s factory automatic transmission was designed for daily placid driving, a comprehensive software tune optimises the control system from the ground up, unleashing its full off-road and towing capabilities.
If you’re looking for better performance from your 4WD to give you peace of mind, increased driving enjoyment or longevity due to your driving desires, a performance upgrade in the form of transmission software remapping is what you’re looking for.

An automatic transmission fluid temperature monitoring device in your Toyota continuously tracks the transmission fluid’s temperature, offering real-time data to the driver.
This system is invaluable for alerting drivers to potential overheating issues, which can cause performance degradation and increase wear on internal components, potentially leading to transmission failure.
By providing timely warnings when fluid temperatures exceed safe levels, the monitoring device empowers drivers to take proactive measures by relaxing the load on the transmission to prevent damage and expensive repairs caused by overtemperature conditions.
Overall, an automatic transmission fluid temperature monitoring device for your Toyota delivers peace of mind by offering real-time monitoring, early warning alerts, and customisable features.
By helping drivers prevent transmission overheating and maintain optimal performance, it contributes to prolonging the transmission’s lifespan and ensuring a smoother driving experience.
A deep sump increases the oil capacity of your Toyota’s transmissions hydraulic system, this gives a greater fluid surface area for heat dissipation and can increase the timeframe at which your transmission will require servicing, the increased compacity provides more fluid for normal wear and tear contaminants to absorb into.
This innovative addition not only helps in keeping fluid temperatures lower especially under high load but also extends the lifespan of your transmission.
Installation is straightforward and can typically be completed during a transmission service procedure. Very rarely are any modifications to your vehicle required.
