Frequently asked questions

What does this oil cooler pipe do?
The Oil Cooler Pipe returns engine oil from the oil cooler back to the engine. It's used on the 2.5L four-cylinder diesel and V8 petrol applications, forming part of the engine oil cooling circuit.
Which vehicles does this oil cooler pipe fit?
This oil cooler pipe fits the Defender (1987-2006) 2.5L four-cylinder from VIN FA389799 to LA939975, the Discovery 1 V8 petrol, and the Range Rover Classic V8 petrol from VIN JA610294. Confirm your engine and chassis number before ordering.
Why do oil cooler pipes fail?
Oil cooler pipes typically fail when the flexible sections perish or the end unions corrode, causing oil leaks under the engine. On the Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic, vibration and age usually crack the pipe at its fittings.
