Seal Failed, No Relief

Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I can confirm that this seal adapter was a disappointment. Despite being easy to install, the seal failed to keep my engine cooler secure, leading to leaks and overheating. The only positive was the affordable price point, but it ultimately cost me more in repairs.

Pros
  • Provides a tight and secure seal to prevent oil leaks
Cons
  • Requires proper installation or it may cause more harm than good to the engine

Fits as expected - radiator and accessories

This helped fix an annoying oil leak that was ruining my garage floor. It fits behind the oil filter bracket in a 2003-2006 G35, but I believe it will work in a 2003-2006 G35 coupe too (video, repair is pretty easy). Dorman generously provides three o-rings, but you only need to fix one to fix the leak, so don't get confused

Pros
  • Sturdy construction - this part is made of high quality materials to ensure reliable performance and long life
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Perfect Fit and Stop Leaks - Infiniti I35 2003

After visiting several mechanics over the past year and spending several hundred dollars When we later tried to fix an oil leak in our 2003 Infiniti i35 these replacement rings saved us time, money and oil on our engine! The oil pan and gasket were replaced but there was still an oil leak (cold season only). Second, another mechanic added a UV filter to the oil and confirmed that it was leaking from under the oil pan gasket. My friend and I bought a replacement oil pan gasket and did the job…

Pros
  • Direct Replacement - This Engine Oil Cooler Gasket is designed to match the fit and function of the Original Equipment gasket on certain vehicles
Cons
  • Some Imperfections
