I had a separate cooler fitted for that reason. The alternative approach would be a new rad.2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

That is pretty big to fit - or it is in my case due to the intercooler I have fitted. Otherwise it does look a good option. I do like the fan as well, though it is not clear how that is controlled.
The only thing it doesn't say is the cooling capacity, but that is not easy to do given that the oil flow is unknown.Mark.
