Exacto

I have an older 2007 Mazda 5, and bought and installed this oil cooler. It lasted about 5 month. It started leaking internally and mixed oil with coolant, which went everywhere inside the engine and radiator. A huge mess, and potentially killing the engine if I did not discover it in time. I had to remove a lot of parts before I get to the oil cooler, cleaned up for hours, managed to rescue the engine and cooling system. I then bought the original japanese made improved updated oil cooler for around $200 which works awesome now. You do not want to risk using this oil cooler offered here, so much trouble.

Most of it has been made from what appears to be aluminum, using very little plastic. It does have some weight to it but not what most would expect. The part fit firmly into its area and was easily connected. Which automatically fixed my car issues. But the best part of it all is that the part was actually affordable.

I wish I had read the reviews on this item before I purchase it. As like many others who have bought this, I too suffered the same disaster! When I initially installed this oil cooler, all seemed fine and I drove the car for approximately 2000 miles. All of a sudden I heard a thumping sound and a squeal from the serpentine belt slipping. I pulled over and opened the hood and I was shocked to see oil gushing out of the radiator puke tank! After I got the car back to the shop, it required flushing the Hoses, Radiator, Heater Core and Block 10-12 times and then flushing the system with degreaser an additional 2-3 times to clear all the oil out of the cooling system. Luckily, no coolant was present in the oil jacket. Obviously, this part is a POS and this has cost me Hundreds of dollars, not to mention several hours in repair time. Do Not Buy this piece of Crap!!!!

After 4 months of running this cooler is finally went today. Unsure why or how. Cooler fits like it should but seems poor quality material. Oil in coolant failure.

This product only lasted about one week and leaked oil into the coolant system. Very costly to tow home many components will need to cleaned or replaced.

2nd time replacing the oil cooler. 1st in lasted ~4 years. I hope this one last longer!

I installed this on a 2008 mazda 5. It developed an internal leak and allowed oil into the coolant and some coolant into the oil. It may have destroyed the engine or at the very least shortened the engines life and cost me a lot of time and money.
