Dorman Replacement Oil Cooler Lines Suck - 1998 S70

Post by demian5 »

Got these from Rock Auto for half the price I could find them elsewhere. I had one leaking at the crimp. Replaced them but the clamp at the oil pump isn't fitting flush and I had to reuse my o-rings cause the replacement ones were too thick and wouldn't go inside.

Then a week later, the lower fitting at the radiator is leaking oil. Had to replace that o-ring too cause it was too thin!

I thought about calling Rock Auto customer service but not sure that would get anything done.

Lame, I wish I would have ponied up but it was the difference between $150 or $300+ for parts.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
