Why should I install an engine oil cooler in my vehicle?

Oil coolers reduce heat stress during heavy-duty use like towing or off-roading. Keeping temperatures in check improves engine efficiency and extends engine life.For a detailed guide, check out our Engine Oil Coolers FAQ to make sure you get the best setup for your vehicle.

How do I choose the right engine oil cooler for my vehicle?

Tube-fin coolers suit moderate needs, while plate-fin and stacked-plate coolers offer better heat control. Pick the right cooler based on load, climate, and performance goals.

How do I install an engine oil cooler?

A well-installed cooler makes all the difference in performance. Most installations involve:
  • Mounting the cooler where it gets good airflow.
  • Routing oil lines carefully to prevent kinks.
  • Installing a sandwich adapter between the oil filter and engine block for proper oil flow.
  • Double-checking connections for leaks before hitting the road.
Taking the time to install it correctly means less worry about overheating and more time enjoying the drive.

Will adding an oil cooler affect my vehicle’s oil pressure?

Adding an oil cooler slightly changes oil flow, but it won’t hurt performance when installed correctly. A properly sized cooler and oil lines keep pressure where it should be, so your engine stays protected and runs smoothly, even under heavy loads.

Can I install an engine oil cooler on any vehicle?

Most vehicles can benefit from an oil cooler, but fitment matters. The best setup depends on available space, engine design, and oil system compatibility. Before installing, make sure the cooler you choose is rated for your vehicle’s engine type and towing needs. The right setup means better cooling, better performance, and a longer-lasting engine.
