redwoodkp 0 Posted August 9, 2008 So just had a phone call off my mechanic after a day of shitty mishaps with my C. Car went into garage to get water pump changed and cam belt on thursday. Yesterday it emerged i needed a new metal coolant pipe, that runs round the engine from the water pump to side of head area, which was no probs ordered one from veedub and was delivered this morning and plan of action was to get car back to me this afternoon. After fitting the new pipe a new problem has come to light. My mechanic explained that water was pissing (his words) out of the aluminium plate the oil filter is screwed into. I think he mentioned it as the oil cooler (could be wrong got myself into a little pap and switched off) which is in the pic below. Anyone tell me if this is the oil cooler so i know what im ordering and if not what it in fact is?? Also anyone know where's best to get this part?? VW?? How much?? (nicked the pic of someone elses post when trying to search for info so credit to original poster etc.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
