Oil leak: Dealer says it's the oil cooler seal??????
Not sure I have the correct term but thats pretty much what they said was leaking. Anyone know where this is located/diagram ?
Dealer is charging me 850$ ( parts 11$ + 5 hr labor). Does this sound fair?

Not sure which one of the X's you refer to, but here's the oil cooler. In front and below the radiator. The pipes have an O-ring where they fit in the cooler - diagram. Maybe these are bust.

Hello , hope this helps. On that V8 engine on the L/S of the engine where the oil cooler supply and return lines connect. There is a plate which also holds the mount for the alternator. There is a gasket between the engine block and 2 "o" rings for the lines. The gasket between the engine block and mounting plate is a common spot for leakage. To see the gasket in question check on real oem and go to group 12 for engine electrical then click on alternator mounting. It will show the gasket that needs replacement. Its a fairly involved job thus the high labor low parts price. Good luck. Jeff

Yes. You need to remove front driveshaft and unbolt front differential. Than use two pry bars and slightly pry differential out. About 1/2 inch. You will be able to rotate diff clockwise and get that last bolt out. I just did this job 2 month ago. If you have any question please PM me.
