Problems with Oil Cooler leaks on 1.8T????

[Chris Dyer]

Curious [finger to mouth]
Could he be racing/auto-xing? Maybe just a bad-apple gasket, or not 
installed quite right or damaged during install? Is the k04 & custom ECU the 
exact same as on the 225tt? I'm guessing there's a bunch a variables here, 
so I'd just replace it, dubble check all my stuff & hope it's not chronic.
