Gearbox Oil Cooler

KENHAYES247 · 29th July 2013, 16:15

Hi all,

Well i have finally decided to bite the bullet and sort out the aircon on my car. A recent inspection revealed that the condenser was little more than a dust of aluminium collecting at the front of the radiator.

Seeing as most of the front was dismantled i checked what i believe to be the gearbox oil cooler. Initial impressions were good until i touched the cooler and it too start to flake aluminum rather like the condenser. Whilst not leaking any oil and reasonably okay apart from the flaking it seems like a good time to replace.

Can anyone recommend a good reasonable supplier? New, refurbed or indeed secondhand parts will do?

Is it worthwhile replacing?
