Does anybody know if the FL5 type R has a transmission cooler?

Yes it does. It uses water from the coolant system so technically it’s also a heater to get the oil up to temp on cold days. There’s also a oil pump (it shows up on the parts diagrams for the transmission). Vtech Academy on youtube has a vid where they drop the K20C out of an Fk8 and talk about the cooler.
