No just a tranny coolerHow tell if my car's radiator has a engine oil cooler?
If it has an engine oil cooler, there will be 2 metal lines going to it, probably at the bottom. I have never seen a passenger car with an engine oil cooler though. Transmission cooler integrated into the radiator, yes, but not engine oil. Is this a diesel engine Olds by any chance?
First of all it doesn't have an engine oil cooler!,-- It is a transmission oil cooler (they call it a transaxle)! You can tell by looking on drivers side on end of radiator (Inside under hood), -- there are two fittings with metal tubes (about 1/4 - 3/8 inch in diameter) connected there , -- they go back to transmission! This is used by all cars with automatic transmission!
If you should have a car with a standard transmission you don't need the oil cooler, and if the repacenent you come up with has it, -just put plugs in holes and forget it!
If it has an auto trans. then it should have four lines going to it. two for trans cooler and two for oil cooler. trans cooler lines go to trans and oil cooler lines go to engine. usually to the oil filter housing. If you buy a radiator with oil cooler it will still work you just leave the holes where the lines would go plugged. hope this help
just look on the back of the radiator(engine side)
an see if you can see two sets of hard lines going into it or one(for the transmission)
