FAQs

Does this kit include all necessary seals?

Yes, the febi bilstein 105960 kit comes complete with the required gaskets and seals for a standard installation.

How do I know if this fits my car?

You should check the compatibility list using your vehicle's make, model, and engine code or cross-reference the part number with your vehicle's service manual.

Can I install this myself?

If you have experience with automotive cooling systems, it is a straightforward replacement, but professional installation is recommended due to the need for system bleeding.

What is the benefit of the 24-rib design?

The 24-rib design increases the surface area exposed to airflow or cooling medium, which allows for more effective heat dissipation.

Do I need to flush my cooling system after installation?

Yes, it is highly recommended to flush the cooling system to remove any debris and ensure that the new cooler functions with clean fluid.

Troubleshooting

Oil leaking from the mounting surface

Ensure the gasket is seated correctly and that the mounting bolts were tightened to the specified torque.

Oil and coolant mixing in the expansion tank

This indicates an internal seal failure; the unit must be replaced immediately to avoid engine damage.

Engine overheating despite new cooler installation

Check for air pockets in the cooling system and ensure the cooling fan and thermostat are operating correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed on a cold engine to prevent burns and to ensure that oil and coolant have drained fully. Always compare the new unit against the old component to verify the rib configuration and port alignment. When installing the provided gaskets, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to prevent oil leaks. Use a torque wrench to tighten bolts to the manufacturer's recommended specifications. For long-term care, maintain your engine's cooling system by flushing coolant at the recommended intervals, as acidic or contaminated coolant can corrode the internal channels of the oil cooler.
