Anyone have an oil cooler for a '90 325i automatic vert they don't need? This attaches to the oil filter housing w/ 2 hoses. I'm in need of one, current one is leaking.

It's not an oil cooler, it's an oil heater :). Anyway, you don't need it unless you track it or live in -20 degF conditions. I'd get rid of it all together as a way to reduce potential for issues.

Get PN: 11112140435 and get rid of it.

No, just a brain fart induced failure. The lower connection to cooler is bent. I may go James' route and remove it. Less chance of failure since it's exposed and at the bottom of the grill.

Rodney,

I've got a good used cooler, and I might have the fitting that you need to eliminate the cooler (just a threaded tube that screws into the block and then you screw the oil filter directly on to this).
