Title: universal oil filter relocator 1.6 td
Post by: frankentoy on February 07, 2005, 08:59:19 am

has anybody used a universal oil filter relocation kit on a td? this motor is going into a toyota truck and the motor mounts will interfere with the oilfilter and cooler. so moving the filter would be ideal. i want to lose the cooler and use a different cooler like an inline.  if you have done this let me know where you got it and how you like it. thanks

If you can it helps to keep the original vw oil cooler as well as add an extra external one as the VW cooler is not just a cooler, when the engine is cold the water from the cooling system helps warm up the oil, aiding lubrication and warming the engine helping efficancy ect.
