Description
Protect your Audi RS4's high-performance 4.2L V8 engine with the Forge Motorsport Engine Oil Cooler Kit—engineered to eliminate a well-known weakness in the factory cooling system. The OEM cooler features steel fittings joined to an aluminum core, leading to galvanic corrosion, oil leaks, and eventual failure of the entire cooling system.
When corrosion sets in, the original lines often seize, requiring both the cooler and lines to be replaced—an expense exceeding £1100 before labor or consumables. Forge Motorsport’s solution is a comprehensive upgrade, built with motorsport-proven components to ensure long-term reliability and peak performance.
