Axio 2007 transmission fluid in radiator

Hi all members. I am facing a problem in my Toyota Axio 2007. The issue is in the transmission of my car. The gear oil is leaking in the radiator and looking like a strawberry shake. I went to the mechanic, he changed the transmission oil filter and told me that it is leaking due to the ATF in to the radiator. But I am not satisfied with his explanation. The new CVT oil was filled after the drainage of old transmission oil. I have flushed the radiator for many times but the strawberry shake is still visible in the radiator. The gears are also producing a little noise. When I drive the car on the slope the noise becomes louder. Kindly help me to fix this issue. What should I do? Should I visit the Toyota 3s dealership? Thanks in advance.

if you have ATF in the radiator coolant, then you probably have coolant in the ATF too.

The noise you hear is the transmission clutches slipping metal on metal. The clutch plate material in an automatic delaminates when exposed to water like engine coolant has

You need to change the radiator immediately - the cooler is leaking inside You will need to rebuild the autobox too if its too far gone, but a good thorough ATF flushing may also work - you will need close to 20 litres of ATF to flush this out.
