Are Engine Oil Coolers Necessary?

The way oil coolers work is similar to radiators. An oil cooler is designed to keep the oil at an ideal temperature, especially in vehicles that are driven hard, like high-performance cars or large trucks hauling heavy loads. When oil gets too hot, it becomes thinner, which means that it can't protect your engine parts very well. An oil cooler brings down the temperature of your oil and then returns it to the engine.

Most vehicles don't have oil coolers, but semi-trucks, large pickup trucks that haul heavy trailers, and high-performance sports cars often do. If you tow a lot, but your truck or SUV didn't come with an oil cooler, you can get one installed.

Oil coolers ultimately extend the life of your engine if it's consistently subjected to stressful conditions such as towing heavy items or racing. Oil coolers can also be useful if you have an off-road vehicle that is working hard in low gears when you're climbing rocks or traversing rough terrain.
