So I am getting ready to install an oil cooler on my 02 620.  I have all the parts I need and just wanted to make sure I have the installation process down.
I need to drain oil and take off filter, pull stud for oil filter and reinstall with diverter valve ( Only goes on one way right?), pull plugs in case for lines and attach lines, remove valve cover and install new one, bolt on cooler attach lines to cooler, fill er up and go.  I think that covers it but if anyone has any suggestions or any extra advice please let me know. 

Also, I thought CA-Cycle works had a how to video but I can't seem to find it.  TOB sucks to find shit on.  If anyone has a how to write up, pictures, or can help me find that video I would greatly appreciate it.  Thanks in advance waytogo

So I just layed everything out to make sure it was all there and I realized I am missing 2 of the nipples for the lines along with the crush washers for the nipples to the case/cooler (x4).  My dealership kind of sucks so I am guessing they will not have either of these things.  Does anyone know if I can get them somewhere else or just have to order them if the dealership doesn't have them?

I can't see crush washers being really all that different so you might be able to take the fittings to an autoparts store and get the right ones.

Seems like you got the process down, just need the rest of the stuff to go with it. waytogo

Try our sponsors, both dealer and non-dealer, they may have some on hand.

I don't have any spares.

So my shity dealership doesn't have the two nipples/fittings, 4 crush washers for the fittings, or the 8 o-rings I need to install this.  Does anyone know where I can get these quick.  Please help.

Thanks for the advice Speed Dog,
I am going to try a local Fastenal and another performance shop tomorrow before I have them ordered.
I live in Columbus and got a hold of a dealership in Akron that tells me they can have them in a week so I'll probably order them from there and I'll have an excuse for a 2.5 hr drive up there.
