Ever wonder how high your oil temperature gets on your Duramax? Pretty damn high..... If you drive a 2001-2007 or 2011-2016 Duramax and use it for towing/hauling (you know, like a boat to the river) here is an upgrade to help the engine run cooler. The engine oil cooler can be upgraded to the one used on the 2021 L5P engines. The link below is an article I wrote comparing oil coolers. Long story short is it's a great upgrade and helps lower oil temp in every day driving, but makes a big improvement when towing. I would highly recommend upgrading for those that tow. If you have any questions let me know, always happy to help!

Duramax cooling issues are a known problem. Is adding an L5P oil cooler enough to give the drop in temps we need?
