[QUOTE="jinooi, post: 358960, member: 15870"] mechanic is bullshitting you. there's no such thing!!! radiator cools engine only. it's a closed circuit. only thing that will leak into the radiator is engine oil, e.g. if you've got a blown head gasket. gearbox is another closed circuit. the transmission oil cools the gearbox, and it is advised that you change the atf at about 100,000km. actually more frequently if you drive your car hard. so there is absolutely no way that the radiator coolant gets mixed up with the transmission coolant (ATF). get a second opinion fast!
