Default Question

I have a 2017 1lt coupe with a seven speed trans.
Does this car have any kind of cooling lines going through/behind the drivers side rocker panel??


Also, it`s a base coupe, not a Z51- no rear spoiler and 18"-19" wheels


Thanks

Take a look at post #10 to see an assembly drawing which indicates there is a cooling line in the rocker that goes to the back of the car to a transmission cooler. You can take this drawing and take a look under your vehicle to see if you have a rear transmission cooler to see for yourself.

Thanks JJF- went out to the car looked through the vertical vents in the rear fascia- do not see any coolers in there (both sides) lines would be harder to see car too low and panels covering everything under there- was just trying to confirm that the base C7 with a manual trans does not have any cooler lines in the drivers rocker- installed side skirts and trying to confirm i could not have punctured anything- ocd is a pain!!!

Short answer is no it shouldn't. It's not an automatic, so no cooler. It's not a z51 so no cooler... So no.
