Thats okay. I appreciate the look.

The silver strip you see through the upper grill is the radiator. The black finned coil forward of that is the A/C condenser coil.
On mine there is a space and then the loop of tubing that should be for cooling the power steering.

With the towing package there will be a third finned coil in front of the A/C coil, towards the front of the car.

The first photo shows the silver Radiator behind the black A/C coil looking up. The second shows the power steering loop in front of the A/C coil. Yours should have the ATF cooler between those two, or it may sit above the PS loop. Don't mind the bugs.

Weird. It looks to me like that strip that you call the radiator sits on top of the AC condensor. Are you sure you don't have them reversed? Why would the AC condensor need to be so big compared to the radiator?
BTW, how the hell did you get that pic? Did you remove the grill?

There isn't anything else in front the ac condenser on mine. It looks exactly like yours. It must be somewhere else.

The silver strip is actually just a little part visible behind and above the condenser. The silver radiator is actually larger than the condenser, but mostly hidden behind it.

The black radiator upper tank sits on top of the silver finned coil, hiding it from view above.

And I didn't take the grill off.


I will just have to look at one myself. Thanks for looking anyway.

I took a quick look at my 09, I can't tell either.. I'll take a closer look tommorow if I get a chance.

I double checked the 09 brochure and it says tranny cooler standard.. so theres gotta be something there : )

Yeah, it has got me stumped. Someone else just posted and said it might be some sort of finned tubing instead of a radiator looking device.

It may also be a rail type cooler mounted along the frame rail.
