Hi, what’s the thoughts on an oil cooler on a 1600td worth doing, pointless, not nessasary?

Re: Oil cooler question

Re: Oil cooler question
It's generally viewed as a worthwhile upgrade for the JX in terms of lifespan of the engine. It's also worth having some extra cooling if you're planning to tackle any mountainous areas as the climbs are often a cause of engine temps getting a bit higher than is comfortable.
