Oil Cooler

Post by HK 6N2 »

I just read a Taiwan Web Site, it said Polo GTI already have stock Oil Cooler for the engine, so don't need to spend $$ to add a cooler, is it
correct?? :roll:

There is a cooler that the engine coolant runs through. Is that what you mean?

No, I think you are talk about the RADIATER, which used to make the
coolant cool down, right~
The Oil Cooler is a small cooler which is used for cool down the engine oil
Just like below:

No, there is a heat exchanger that oil runs through and that the coolant runs through. -The oil cooler.

I wasn't talking about the radiator.

Oh! I may understand what you mention, you mean there is a
Cooler which both engine oil & coolant will runs through in it, and let
the coolant cool down the hot engine oil, and then the hot coolant will runs
through in to the "radiator", and let the wind cool down the coolant, is that right?? :oops: Sorry for my poor english~

But as I know , most Engine Oil Cooler only use in-take air (Wind) to cool
down the oil cooler, seldom use "coolant" to cool down the oil cooler, this design make the cooler structure be come more complicated.
Do you think so?
