What is an oil cooling line in car?

I have a Mazda Tribute 2003 that was leaking antifreeze and dealership wants to replace this line. Does it attach to radiator?What is an oil cooling line in car?
Your car has an oil to coolant intercooler that is used to cool the engine oil. It routes coolant from the cooling system (which the radiator is part of) and uses it to cool the engine oil.





It sounds like one of the coolant lines (hoses) carrying coolant (also called antifreeze) has sprung a leak and needs to be replaced.





Contrary to another post with 40+ years experience, I actually looked at my technical references here in the shop (Mitchell and AllData). Your vehicle does have lines (hoses) that carry COOLANT to your engine oil cooler.








Good luck!What is an oil cooling line in car?
HI


Yes it attaches to the radiator if its a cooling line... But what has me concerned is that the line does NOT contain coolant it contains Oil.... why for a coolant leak would they replace a line that does not contain coolant???


good luck

Anti-freeze has nothing to do with oil or oil cooling.


Some cars use the radiator area for transmission and oil cooling because the systems are similar.
do you mean hose? not all coolant hoses/lines connect to the radiator.
