MJdronfield, thanks for the reply. Ive left a message with Sheffield Prestige. Did they replace the gasket on yours or the whole unit?

It was in a while as my oil cooler was cracked. They ordered one from Gordon Lamb and that arrived damaged, and I needed the coolant flushing out about 4 times to get rid of the oil......

I know this is not relating to an oil cooler leak however the specialist garage I took my car to sort the leak out also changed my front disc and pads. Please have a look at the pic of the front pads that they fitted. The pad.has fallen forward a d is grinding on the disc. |

So after a week being stood at my local indy... he diagnosed the leak to be coming from the sump and not the oil cooler. Has anyone ever heard of this??.
