Perhaps the simplest type of heat exchanger, the tube-fin effectively cools a variety of automotive systems. The concept is simple: Fluid cools as it travels through the core by transferring heat out to the fins. The fins then provide the surface area necessary for sufficient heat exchange to take place, allowing the heat pulled from the fluid to dissipate into the surrounding air. The result is longer-lasting oil and a better-functioning engine.
The sandwich adapter in this kit provides the external oil lines necessary to install a cooler without requiring you to move the factory spin-on oil filter, making it even easier to extend the life of your vehicle's engine. In addition, the thermostatic bypass feature allows oil cooler than 180 degrees to bypass the heat exchanger, so your engine will warm up faster.

Installed this product on my 2013 Ram 5.7 Hemi. Install was simple and straight forward. I hoped there would be improvements in the operating temperature of my engine oil, which there was. Now towing my trailer is no worry about engine oil temp. This cooler works exactly as advertised, and the temp never go above 220. An unexpected result was better gas mileage by almost 2 additional miles per gallon. Also the truck runs much quieter than before and smoother. This noticed by my wife who rides with me always. So I would defiantly call this a win win install and purchase.

I purchased this kit 1 year ago for an 08 Toyota Highlander V6 Sport. The vehicle had a small (and I mean small) trans cooler already installed with the sport, but adding this additional cooler gives us the piece of mind an confidence that when either towing or evening just sitting in temps up to 116F at the drive through in SoCal during summer hours, my family will stay cool. The fans run less and the whole vehicle runs a bit cooler as well. I have verified this with 3rd party OBD readers, actively watching oil temps both at normal operating temps, hill climbs, towing, and when sitting in extreme heat. IT DOESNT BUDGE! I dont have enough good things to say about this cooler. If youve ever thought about it, you should do it. Very easy to install and it flat out works.

It doesn't fit my car even though the website said it would. I had already installed the radiator component before i found the filter adapter didn't fit so i couldn't return the product.

This is a universal kit, so there is no guarantee whether it will fit your application. In order for us to assist you, we need pictures and to know what made the adapter not fit.
by: Jerome03/06/2023
Easy to install but make sure you use quality thread tape. Check for leakage after 300 miles of driving. Then check again.

It has been 1 year now. Here is the story.
Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 w/3.92 gears.
Oil temp at speed with no trailer: 224
Oil temp at speed with Springdale Mini RV: 240 (backed off at that point….it would have kept climbing)
After the install:
Oil temp at speed with no trailer: 200ish.
With trailer 210-220
Before I did this, I had to keep it at 55 in the expressway to keep my oil from turning into charcoal. Now I can drive normally. Only at the hottest part of the summer on a long grade did I ever brake 230 and it cooled right back off at the top of the hill.
Also holds about another quart of fluid which I like from a wear/tear perspective.
Even if the temp wasn’t an issue this kit would be worth it to move the oil filter to a non-retarded spot. I opted to go with the frame on the right side. Can change filter from side if wheel is turned. Very nice.
by: Shawn05/16/2023
My vehicle is a 2010 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi 4x4. Overall product is great, those Conti hoses are awesome and little hard to get on lol but only issue I had I couldn’t retain my factory mopar oil filter which isn’t a big deal I got a WIX filter that fit. Thanks for quick shipping and great product! Will be buying a transmission cooler from you soon!

Installed this on my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee overland with the hemi as the oil temp was heating up while towing. The install was not fun as I had to remove the front fender, grill and under body shield. Had to relocate oil filter to driver side and as a result, ran out of hose and had go out to buy more. Wish there was a few more feet. I placed oil cooler in front of radiator.
Once installed, oil cooler has worked great as I regularly go off-roading and camping towing a 6k pound trailer. Oil temps stay 20-30 degrees cooler making a huge difference when towing. No issues with the oil cooler after a year of use. Has been a great product, I would recommend it.
by: Tom03/29/2013
To start I gave the product a good rating only because the kit put together by Derale came with the wrong barb fittings. I called Derale directly and they sent out the right fittings. I have not installed the kit yet but it is well made in the USA. If the kit would of came with the proper barb fitting definitely would of got a excellent rating.
by: Bill03/06/2022
This is a quality product and performs great. Installed on a 2012 Toyota Tacoma and had to have some machine work accomplished and a change from the original oil filter. Installation was straight forward after those issues were resolved.
by: SteveO05/21/2012
Happy to find a system with the adapter. Mounted to my 4runner very easily. Not much confidence in the plastic mounting method will make something else.

See what our Experts say about this Derale Engine Oil Coolers
- Which Derale Engine Oil Cooler for 2007 Chevy Uplander with 3.9L EngineAccording to my research, the 3.9L engine in your Uplander has 13/16-16 oil filter threads, and the oil filter uses a 2-3/4 inch diameter gasket. To determine which oil cooler is appropriate for your vehicle, simply match up the filter thread and gasket size to that of the cooler kit. The # D15502 kit you mentioned is compatible with a 13/16-16 engine filter thread size and a 2-3/4 inch diameter gasket, per the product description and therefore would be the correct cooler for your vehicle....
view full answer... - Will Derale Engine Oil Cooler #D15502 Fit on a 2007 Dodge Caliber R/TYes, the Derale Oil cooler part # D15502 that you referenced will fit and work well on your 2007 Dodge Caliber R/T. I looked up the thread size of your oil filter and it's 22 mm x 1.5 mm which is the same size as one of the fittings that comes with this kit.

You will want to measure this space prior to purchasing a cooler. If you have space, I recommend using the Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit w/ Sandwich Adapter part # D15502. This engine oil cooler kit has everything you will need for...
view full answer... - Engine Oil Cooler Recommendation for a 2001 Dodge Ram with 360 Cubic Inch MotorThe engine oil temperature should only be a concern if you notice that the gauge, if you have a gauge, is above the normal operating temperature. It can also be a concern when towing or carrying things in the bed of the truck. Adding an engine oil cooler will lower the temperature by as much as 50 degrees depending on where the core is mounted. Engine oil temperature should be between 180 and 200 degrees for the engine to function the best so if your engine oil routinely goes above that...
view full answer... - Engine Oil Cooler Recommendation for 1971 Chevy CamaroThe best way to keep your your SBC 350 cool in your 1971 Chevy Camaro will be an upgrade aluminum radiator if you haven't already. I had a 1972 Camaro with a 350 and all of the cooling issues I had with the car went away with an improved radiator. If you wanted an oil cooler though we have the Derale part # D15502 which will attach between the oil filter and the block and will cool the oil. I don't like to recommend these typically as they might lower oil pressure slightly but if you have...

view full answer... - Engine Oil Cooler Kit for a Komatsu PC45R-8 with Yanmar 4 Cylinder EngineThe Napa Oil Filter 1324 you have has M20x1.5mm threads which means the correct Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit for your Yanmar engine is part # D15502. You will need to use the sleeve nut with a black paint marking.
view full answer... - Will Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit, # D15502 Fit a 2008 Toyota HighlanderIt is very likely that the Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit, # D15502, will fit your 2008 Toyota Highlander. From the research I did, the thread size on the oil filter on the vehicle is 3/4-16, which is compatible with this kit. This kit uses the 2-3/4 inch o-ring diameter so if your Highlander has an o-ring that is any other size, this kit will not fit.
view full answer... - Engine Oil Cooler Recommendation for 2014 Ford Flex SE 3.5 V6The oil filter of your 2014 Ford Flex has a thread size of M22 x 1.5 so the part # D15502 would fit and work well since it comes with a thread adapter in that size. For a relocation kit that is designed for that size you would need the part # D15725.

The transmission cooler would be a good idea if you were towing near your vehicle's maximum towing capacity but I have never heard of one being required. I also...

- Compatibility of Derale # D15502 Oil Cooler Kit on 2011 Ford Flex with 3.5L EngineThe Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler you mentioned, part # D15502 includes the sleeve nut and o-ring that is compatible with the 3.5L engine in your Flex. As long you have sufficient room directly behind the grille and in front of the radiator to accommodate the 16-5/8 x 7-5/8 size of the cooler itself, and you will still be able to remove the oil filter once it is moved 1-3/4 inches further away from the engine block (to accommodate thickness of sandwich adapter), the Cooler Kit will...
view full answer... - Could Derale Engine Oil Cooler D15502 Fit 2010 Chevy Camaro SSSince your oil filter thread size is m22x1.5 the Derale engine oil cooler part # D15502 would fit and work great on your 2010 Chevy Camaro SS. I would imagine the area behind the bumper has enough clearance but we don't know that for sure. The dimensions of the cooler though are 16-5/8" wide x 7-5/8" tall x 3/4" deep which you can compare to that area to see if it would fit.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Engine Oil Leak on 2001 Dodge 5.9 Magnum At Oil Filter Sandwich AdapterIt sounds like you either have a bad o-ring, the incorrect fittings, or the threads have been stripped. You don't need the entire kit like # D15502 for that fix. I recommend the Derale Thermostatic Sandwich Adapter Kit - Multiple Engine Filter Threads # D15782 as a replacement. This will use barb style fittings and hose clamps at the hoses and when installed correctly should not have any leak.
view full answer... - Will Derale Engine Oil Cooler D15502 Fit a 1968 Chevy Camaro with a 250 In Line 6The Derale Engine Oil Cooler, # D15502, fits many different engine filter thread sizes (3/4-16, 13/16-16, 18 mm x 1.5 mm, 20 mm x 1.5 mm, and 22 mm x 1.5 mm), so it should fit your 1968 Chevy Camaro. You can check ahead of time by checking the filter thread size of a filter that fits your engine. Also check the O-ring diameter. This kit fits an o-ring diameter of 2-3/4 inches. The unit does have a built-in thermostatic bypass feature. It allows oil cooler than 180 degrees to bypass the...

For a complete engine oil cooler kit, you can use # D15502.
view full answer... - Recommendation on a Hitch, Wiring Harness, Transmission and Oil Cooler for a 2011 Ford FlexI have a hitch that will work on your 2011 Ford Flex with single exhaust. The Draw-Tite Max Frame Class III Hitch, # 75679, is a custom-fit trailer hitch that is designed for the 2011 Ford Flex. The hitch has a 400 lbs tongue weight capacity and a 4000 lbs gross trailer weight capacity. I recommend this hitch over the Curt hitch, # 13551, because the Draw-Tite hitch has an easier installation than the Curt hitch on the 2011 Ford Flex. The Draw-Tite hitch uses a no drill installation that...
view full answer... - What is the Filter Thread Size on a 2006 Dodge Dakota 4.7 Liter V-8 for an Engine Oil CoolerI spoke with my contact at Derale, the manufacturer, to verify what thread size is used on your 2006 Dodge Dakota with the 4.7L V-8. He stated that it is the 3/4 inch - 16, like you referenced. For an oil cooler that will fit your truck, he recommended the Derale Stacked-Plate Engine Oil Cooler Kit with Sandwich Adapter (Multiple Threads), # D15602, for a stacked-plate design. For a tube and fin design, go with the Derale Tube-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit with Sandwich Adapter (Multiple Threads),...

The sandwich adapter is 2 inches thick so you can measure to be sure that when the adapter is installed you will have room to remove and install your oil filter for normal maintenence. If you do not have enough room to install the the sandwich adapter...
view full answer... - Would Fan Need to be Added to Derale Engine Oil Cooler part # D15502I wish Derale sold the kits that offered the fans separately but they do not. Considering the fact that most vehicles don't really need the engine oil cooled significantly you would be just fine with the part # D15502.
view full answer... - Engine Oil Cooler with Thermostat for a 2006 Toyota Tacoma with V6 MotorFirst you would need an engine oil cooler kit. I recommend # D15502 because it comes with multiple thread types and has the proper O-ring size for a V-6 Toyota motor. The sandwich adapter included is thermostatic so a separate thermostat is not required. Oil that is cooler than 180 degrees will bypass the heat exchanger, so your engine will warm up faster. You may need some extra hose like # D15700 for 10 feet. And for hose clamps use # D13008. I have included a couple of links to oil...
view full answer... - Will Derale Transmission Cooler Work on 2017 Jeep PatriotSince your 2017 Jeep Patriot has an automatic transmission that is not a CVT then yes, the Derale cooler part # D15502 will work. CVT transmissions don't typically have the external cooler lines like the non-CVT transmissions have so based on that we know it will work.
view full answer... - Can an Engine Oil Cooler be Used on a 1993 Toyota Pickup Truck with 3.0 Liter V6Engine oil coolers are not vehicle specific so you can use one on your 1993 Toyota pickup. Cooler # D15502 will fit and includes the fittings you will need. Your motor takes thread size 3/4-16 and has an o-ring diameter of 2-3/4 inches. In most cases the factory oil filter will fit but sometimes a shorter filter is required. For your truck you could use Fram filter # PH3600 or # PH3614. I have included a link to the instructions for you to view.
view full answer... - Which Oil Filter Sandwich Adapter fits 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited RubiconAccording to my research the 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon uses an oil filter with a 3/4-inch 16-TPI thread pitch. For this you will want to use the Derale # D15730 Sandwich Adapter Kit.

This upgrade to my Ram has paid for itself after one year of use by extending the oil life thus reducing oil change interval
