I believe it's the original radiator (service records do not indicate it was ever replaced) and there is absolutly no sign of coolant in the ATF.

I think it was the synthetic fluid with all its detergents that cleaned out the transmission and all that gunk is what got plugged up in the filter.

Just last year on my 740 sedan I flushed the transmission with synthetic ATF and 2 weeks later the cooler failed which caused some kind of milky/foamy fluid to spew from the transmission vent/overflow and ATF in the coolant (which blew a heater hose).

I got very lucky on that one, replaced the radiator, flushed the transmission and cooling system out very well and I'm still driving it around today without issue.

I'll take a look at the coolant just to be sure.
