2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser Oil Cooler Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to Service an Oil Cooler on a 2.4L Turbo Engine on 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser?

  A: Before dealing with the oil cooler or cooling lines on the 2.4L turbo, place the vehicle on a hoist and drain the coolant. Take the oil cooler radiator hoses off and pull out the oil filter. After that, remove the bolt holding the oil cooler connector and then take away the oil cooler. Before placing the cooler onto the filter, insert the seal and grease it. Then line up the cooler's notch with the tab on the adapter and set the bolts to 55 Nm (41 ft. lbs.) by hand. Replace the oil filter, hook up the coolant hoses on the oil cooler, lower the vehicle and pour in the coolant.
