How do you know if your vehicles Oil cooler is working? We can do that for you! We pressure test oil coolers & clean them as well. If they are leaking, we can also supply new oil coolers.
A bad or failing oil cooler can cause the engine oil to overheat, leading to accelerated wear, poor lubrication, and a drop in overall performance. If the cooler physically ruptures, engine oil and coolant can mix, creating a milky sludge that severely damages internal engine components.
An oil cooler acts like a radiator for your engine oil, preventing it from overheating and breaking down under extreme temperatures.
If you suspect your oil cooler is bad, it is critical to stop driving the vehicle to prevent engine damage. Operating the car with a breached cooler risk wearing out bearings, blowing head gaskets, or completely seizing the engine.
**Call us and we can inspect the oil and cooling systems.
**If a failure is confirmed, the cooler will typically need to be replaced.
**Once the new cooler is installed, the entire cooling system will require a deep flush to remove all traces of the oily sludge.
How to prevent oil cooler failure?
Replace oil and oil filter regularly and according to the vehicle's maintenance schedule. Ensure that the lubrication system is clean. Metal particles, dirt, carbon or oil sludge build up must be eliminated, as it can reduce the lubricant flow and cause the pressure relief valve to get stuck.
yes, we can do all that. If you haven't yet changed your vehicles oil and oil filter, we can do that for you! remember your vehicle's oil should be changed yearly even if the vehicle isn't driven much.
