Calhenry , I think it would be legal, The Unit does NOT defeat the cooler. Just replacing VIA aftermarket is acceptable or modifying, The Cooler would most likely NOT change Tail pipe Emissions. The Law is defeat/delete AECD.
The more important question is how can changing the cooler resolve...
When You replace DPF it the PCM needs reset and calibrated , The Dealer is already getting Paid to this,(WITECH) New software update would take minutes 5-15 minutes (To other Modules) in many cases. Plus I think its covered in AEM.
They are Owners with good success in HWY use, In General All Bluetech Dsl Fair better in HWY use.

They can last, but extreme measures need to be Taken. DD use and grocery getting plagues Most Bluetec Dsl engines, the 3.0VM is just more problematic.
If you don't have the Alfa OBD II MX Yellow , get it, its a valuable tool for any Ram Dsl
Many of us have been using MaxLife ATF, it is certified for Use in 8HP70/75 Transmissions.
Milvetac, I will disagree on the drop temp, Its regulated by the Trans heat Exchanger. The Extra 2QTs will take longer to warm up, nothing wrong with More Lube.
The Coolant exchanges temp with the AT...

If you have to keep it just try and use it for Hwy and limit the grocery getting. It is odd it waited to 90%. the VM3.0 in OEM is over engineered and under developed, their Lots of negativity on its history its always best to do research before purchase.
