What was the cost of the external cooler ? Why did you think it was necessary to add one ? Was the seal leaking and what was cost of this ?
I have just noticed a small oil leak from my 940 LPt. Not sue wheer from, think it is a seal near auto box engine interface. local mechanic with Volvo experience, says they all leak there.
