Hi,
Just a quistion for you. Our 914 was leaking large amounts of oil, I suspected the oil seals between cooler and block. Last weekend I had time to work on it so I pulled the engine and tore it down. But the seals seemed fine but the cooler was an oily mess. Luckily we had another block laying around with a known good cooler replaced it and the seals. But here's the question, can any (VW) carshop check an oilcooler for leaks Is this oil cooler the same as the later type 1 oil cooler? looks the same but type 1 unit is probably smaller, right? that's about it, need to get the car checked for admission on the road so I can (legally) drive it around again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) cheers, Jacco de Haan Delft, the Netherlands |
