Cleaning out Oil Cooler on 95’ 940T? 900 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be macs245 on  Mon Jul 20 13:12 CST 2015 [RELATED]

Wondering if anyone has experienced excess pressure, or blockage of oil passages in the oil cooler of the 940T? Specifically the coolant oil cooler mounted to the block, oil filter screws onto the cooler.

Car has 190K miles. I have owned it about 40K miles (3.5 years) and always use Mann filters with Pennzoil full synthetic. Car has always used some oil between changes, but is currently using a lot! Appears to be leaking at the filter, though could also be dripping down from the distributor.

Last week I replaced the oil separator box & all hoses so it's not a crankcase pressure problem.

I'm wondering if the filter seat area on the cooler is damaged - though that wouldn't explain why it hasn't always leaked this much.

Thanks
