Dorman 926-959 Patented Upgraded Aluminum Engine Oil Filter Housing with Oil Cooler and Filter Compatible with Select Models (OE FIX)

I don’t often write reviews, but I had to for this one. I work as a mobile mechanic, and I get a lot of calls for failing oil coolers on Chrysler products — especially the 300s. The original oil cooler is notorious for leaks and a ton of related issues. Whenever I replace a failing cooler, I always look for quality parts is best compared or above OEM standards, and this one goes above and beyond. Not only do you get a complete aluminum oil cooler, but it also comes with the oil filter and intake manifold seals, replacement screws for installation, and a port plug for specific models — which alone would cost about $80–$90 separately. This kit was clearly made with mechanics in mind. It saves me time and money by including everything I need in one box, so I don’t have to make an extra trip to the parts store. If anything, I wish this came with injector seals but that’s me being picky. The included gaskets are high-quality, and the color-coded design with a card explaining the gasket change - a nice touch. The cooler performs better than the original and keeps temperatures lower. Installation-wise, the cooler itself is easy. The hard part is just getting to it. Once installed, it fits perfectly in the valley, and I’ve had no oil pressure issues at all - in all my time installing these units. If you want to save around $150, buy it online. And if you want to save yourself a headache, get the Dorman cooler. Trust me, this isn’t a job you’ll want to redo.

Get rid of the factory plastic ....Dont he fooled by copies of the Doorman , dont compromise on the price .Perfect fit, no leaks ......contruction is robust, American Made and should last forever . Dont forget to buy and replace both oil pressure sensor and coolant temp sensors. Search them independintly on Amazon . They are not expensive. Install should be done by a pro. Unless you are one.... My vehicle , 2014 Jeep JK V 6 ......This engine is in many Chrysler products...

Great solution for a crappy design. Dorman for the win on this one! Everything you need to replace, all gaskets, and an oil filter are included. Fits and functions perfectly. I strongly encourage you to change oil when your in there. Coolant will leak into the oil pan.

Great quality, my truck has been loving the fact it's not leaking oil and coolant anymore. Had low oil PSI until I installed this new unit, had sluggish acceleration, a slight noise when switching between lower gears, even a shutter. Now that I have this new oil cooler installed, my truck is running like a dream. The gaskets are high quality and the instructions were detailed and very good.

Purchased this for when mine finally let go, unfortunately had to install in recently. I did my own research on what actually had to come apart to do the install, replaced the part on the car trailer in the driveway in about 2 hours. The quality of this is leaps and bounds better than factory, easy to assemble and install and comes with a great list of alternative oil filters that can be used with part numbers. This was a great buy and definitely got me out of a jam.

Installed into a 2019 dodge caravan. Had to sand down some shape and built up edges to make sure no flakes ended up in the engine. Perfect fit and gaskets seem like good quality for aftermarket installation. 25000 miles later and still no leaks or issues. Oils filter is cheap and should be replaced at 5k miles or less.

Perfect replacement for the plastic oil cooler. I swapped this part out 10 months ago and haven't had any issues with it. Took about 4 hours start to finish to do the replacement and it didn't require any specialty tools. However absolutely drain your radiator and your oil before starting this repair. I thought I could get away with not removing it because I had the front of the car propped up and all of the fluid continued to bubble up into the valley of the engine and I wound up having to do a full radiator and oil system flush when I finished. Seems to be perfectly functional and super durable and I'm very pleased

Spent the weekend replacing the heat exchanger. Therefore, I want to leave a review about the Doorman aluminum filter housing at 3.6. The product is of course far from ideal, there are a lot of burrs, but this is not the most important thing. After assembly, I start the engine and the oil pressure is 0. The sensors are not included with it, but I immediately ordered new ones and a pressure sensor also from Doorman. When the oil can is on and the pressure on the instrument panel is 0, it becomes very scary and it is no longer clear whether the engine is working normally or not. The kit also came with an oil filter, replaced it with the original, pressure 2 psi. As the engine warmed up, the pressure became 6, but no more. The car drives, it seems to be working fine, but the check light is on and the pressure is 6, no matter how many revolutions. The next day, I decided to try installing the old pressure sensor, I had to disassemble everything again, but fortunately there was no need to drain the oil and antifreeze. I unscrewed the old sensor and it was completely dry, oil also did not pour out of the filter housing, although there was oil in it, I saw it when I changed the filter.I installed an old sensor with which there were no problems before. I assembled everything (otherwise it is impossible to check the functionality) the pressure is 0. After this, it was decided to remove and study the heat exchanger. The channel for the oil pressure sensor was plugged, the hole was not made, so the oil did not flow to the sensor. I poked it with a screwdriver a couple of times and it made a hole. And naturally the flakes from this hole remained inside. After that I had to buy another one just like it from Autozone for 328$, but with a normal hole and it works fine, at least I have normal oil pressure now. So just in case, I couldn’t find information about such a case anywhere. If you are changing a filter housing, first blow out all the channels, make sure that they are through, so as not to disassemble everything a thousand times or not pay for it at the shop. Sorry, that's a lot of letters, but I spent the whole weekend on this)

The product is made in Malaysia and is of low quality. Why was it not made clear that it was made in Malaysia? I want American made. In general, the quality is bad. There is no professionalism in the final appearance. Aluminum alloy inserts are not equal and I do not recommend purchasing them.

After smelling a strong odour coming through my heater vents, I initially thought the exhaust was leaking but the pools of oil rapidly forming under the car let me to research leaks on the Grand Caravan, and this became the number one culprit. I watched a bunch of videos online about how to replace this, and as a fairly competent home mechanic with basic level tools I took my time, checked and double checked everything, and had the whole thing done in probably 3-4 hours outdoors on the driveway. It's been a week and no more smells or oil leaks. It's not the cheapest replacement part, but the quality appears to be good, and there is some basic assembly required so make sure you have all the tools before you start. A lb-in torque wrench is a good idea if you want to be precise as well as something like water pump pliers or hoseclip removal pliers. Car trim removal tools proved really useful for loosening old hoses. Also, I'd recommend getting an oil transfer/extractor syringe that will make light work of cleaning out most of the pooled oil that will have collected in the valley between the cylinder banks. Much better than soaking it up with paper towels. In some online guides they will instruct you to remove the fuel hose from the injector manifold - i found it easier and quicker to remove the airbox, leave the fuel rail connected and simply flip the injector manifold over to where the airbox used to be.

Installed a few months ago and still no problem. Throw away the plastic OEM junk and replace it with Dorman alloy parts. That's the way to go.
