Oil Cooler Retrofit

tommay248 · 03-09-2009, 12:47 PM

What, other than the oil cooler itself and what appears to be hoses, do I need to retrofit the 3 series oil cooler onto my car?

im pretty sure you got an oilcooler if your car is a 08. theres also an upgrade kit if thats what your looking for.

Noplace else.

Look and see if there are cooling lines running from the front of the oil filter housing.

Alrrighty, you mean literally right off the front of the motor? Is it painfully obvious if I look or do I have to take the cover off?

can you see the two hoses coming off where the filter is located on this pic?

dreamk · 03-09-2009, 01:55 PM

they are these same two hoses

dreamk · 03-09-2009, 01:56 PM

if you dont have that then you dont got a oilcooler.

Very obvious; there should be two large black oil lines coming from the front of the engine going to the passenger side of the car.

sambonator · 03-09-2009, 02:01 PM

Just to make it easier to see.... if you see these hoses when you pop the hood, you have an oil cooler.
