oil cooler kit for honda cr-v

can anyone recommend a honda approved oil cooler kit for a 2009 honda cr-v ?

if such a thing does not exist, suggest a brand/type that is easy to install and
performs well.

thanks

 

what makes you think honda are incompetent? or to put it another way,
why do you think some dude that wants to sell you something knows more
than honda engineers who test their stuff full loaded in july in the
mojave desert?

 

Read what you quoted, Jim. He asked for the Honda-approved version *if
it exists*. Jeebus.

ah, the good old "form not content" reaction. well done dave - you
qualify for getting sold stuff you don't need because you don't
understand high school physics and can't use google...

A fellow asks if someone can recommend a Honda-approved oil cooler kit.

You respond with a lackwit question not related to his question. Your
answer would make a modicum of sense IN THE EVENT that the fellow was
asking for a non-Honda approved oil cooler kit. (It's all still here in
this post, and fairly easy to understand).

Having read this forum for years, I know that you are a pedagogical
asshole licker unable to learn anything from anyone else, but I also
recognize that you have some limited form of intelligence.

The response you gave would only make sense if Honda never approved or
recommended oil cooler kits - or anything else; if every Honda always
had everything anyone would ever need, already built in. Since I know
that even a monumental dickwad like you knows that not to be the case, I
figured you misread what he wrote.

Then you reply with this additional ad hominem non sequitur. The best
response (not the only one, limpdick) for your inanity is to simply
point out what a waste of skin you are, and say, from the bottom of my
heart, **** you, you syphilitic, dung-infested sack of smegma. Just
make the rest of the world a better place and fucking kill yourself.
Please.

Sincerely,

not getting enough? [rhetorical]

The young fellow "jack", who can be described as the "Original Poster", or
the "OP", also posted the very same question independently to
rec.autos.tech.

My reply, posted only to that group and not this one, pointed out these
five things:
1) OP had not specified whether he wished to cool engine or transmission
oil.
2) Many US-market Honda engines already come with oil coolers attached to
the oil filter mounting point, and that OP should check to see if he
already had one of those.
3) Automatic transmissions already come with oil coolers (OP then refuted
me by bizarrely claiming that ATF is not a lubricant. I kid you not).
4) OP's local Honda dealer will have any Honda-approved devices he should
desire, and OP should telephone them or visit them in person with his
query.
5) It is unwise to yourself perform an alteration of the factory
configuration of a very much *still-warranteed* 2009 vehicle.

Nobody in this Honda group thought of any of those points, did they?

 

Good point, Tegger, and as beam said, I wasn't trying to reply to the
OP, because I don't have any answers. I do recall needing an ATF cooler
on my Odyssey, and one being recommended by Honda for my '03 Accord IF
towing was a regular feature.

I don't know that 4) above is correct; I would think that Honda *might*
have the/an approved device, and it would certainly be a good place to
ask, although we have all seen instances where the dealer didn't have a
clue.

I believe that 5) above would be irrelevant IF the device was
Honda-recommended, as the OP was requesting, although perhaps not, if
the shop doesn't do the installation.

Hope all is well with you in the great white north; with many ISPs
dropping usenet, this place has become kinda dusty!

Actually, he did also ask for non OEM options as well....

"if such a thing does not exist, suggest a brand/type that is easy
to install and performs well."

Maybe he wants to add his own tow package?

 

The provider I am using offers free access. Decent speed, a lot of
newsgroups, though it is text only, so binary guys won't be thrilled
with it.

i don't understand this obsession with after-market oil coolers for
towing. it makes as much sense as the ridiculous notion we have about
using oversized vehicles for towing. if anyone has ever been to europe
and seen the honking great trailers being towed by family sedans and
hatchbacks, no oil coolers, we all might get a little better perspective
than being suckered by people trying to sell stuff we don't need and
that introduce a potential failure point into an otherwise tested and
reliable system.
