Loo-knee is right - VX are reasonably priced enough. Seriously.

Yes, and when undertaking this kind of work I believe it is always best to put brand new, genuine Vx parts in. 8-) 8-)  Can save a lot of heartache developing later! ::) ::) :y

Errr thats serious, go to Vauxhall.

Its around £90 for everything from a dealer.

Pattern is FALSE economy, if you going to the bother of stripping that far down, get decent parts!

as said further up the thread, VX give the best bang per buck.  Chap that first referred was not trying to be smart, just giving straight answer to straight question...

No problem  :y sometimes people get the wrong end of the stick, bit like texting really...
Vauxhall do them for around £100 plus i suppose you will get a warranty with it.
With a secondhand one you really dont know how long it will last being fair, even if its much better than the one your replacing.

I know it has already been said above, but to clarify and re-iterate.

The oil cooler was a known fault until they replaced them with Stainless steel jobbies. By not fitting a genuine one you'll only be asking for trouble and re-introduce the "fault".

It is often not worth going to Vx for parts, but sometimes it is strongly recommended. It depends on which part, and the oil cooler is one of them

As said of Vauxhall, but make sure you get the KIT at £90ish, not the individual parts at £300ish!

Edit, seen you are local, Lookers at Deeside know the kit you need  :y
