Hey guys
After a long road trip and parking the car I could smell burning oil which I thought was weird so i investigated... turns out my oil cooler is leaking...
did a little research on it online and lots of threads suggested it's a common problem for nissan's that the 0-Ring inside the oil cooler fails and all you need to do is replace it... great... should be rather easy fix...
Called Nissan (locally in Edmonton) and they told me they dont sell that o-ring only... instead I have to buy the whole unit.... for $660!!!!
I googled some more and found out it's just a typical "O" ring.... my question to you guys.... as anyone had this issue with their oil cooler?
If the weather holds out this weekend, I might disassemble the unit and see what my findings are... hopefully it is indeed just a basic O ring and I can source one out somewhere locally and not spend 600+ dollars....
