I need a new oil cooler for my 16v turbo. Does anyone know a good source? Are 16v turbo and 20v turbo the same? Ebay auctions quote both part numbers so it seems so. My concern are the dimensions stated. All I can find listed state 155mm between the cooler pipe boss/fitting. I measure mine at 180mm or thereabouts.

Also, does anyone know what the thread the fittings are?

Thanks

Valeo 816666 will fit both 16 and 20 models.

Thanks for the tip. There seem to be so many part numbers, but they all look the same

I know it doesn't really matter but can anyone tell me the original way the oil cooler hoses were connected to the engine, I cant remember.

Eper would suggest far side to the bottom, near side (U Pipe) to the top.

Looks like your Coupe will be ready for the Nationals at "The Bend".

I hope so!

I'm not sure why, but this repair just seemed like a lot of work. At least its all together and without leaks now! I did manage to fit in a Cambelt and other things along the way.
