Title: Oil cooler change
Post by: Kiwimike on May 06, 2023, 02:51:32
Hi there this is my first post here so forgive me please if I staff this up or ask something I should have been able to find elsewhere in the forum

I own a 2008  FD 5 Door Hatch, Diesel 1.6lt, Manual,  that’s fair to say has done a lot of work 370k km

I discovered oil in the coolant and suspect there oil cooler has cracked or leaked,

Questions are how hard if this to swap over?  What’s torque would I use when replacing bolts etc?

Any suggestions on where to source a new one at reasonable cost in NZ, same for radiator?  Or flushing over and over until oil gone ok too?

Thanks
Mike
