Help please. Who here has had success in installing Achtuning's OCK?

I've gone from a major leak to small leak. Also I can not get the oil lines to route correctly without interferring with the belly pan.

I got the leak down to 1-2 drops every 10 minutes, but man what a PITA. It works though.

I recommend people do a bumper off install. The sandwich plate connecters kept coming loose when I tried to install the oil filter. Trying to reach the connecters with the filter on is extremely difficult. I bought a cheap 1" wrench and cut it in half to get it to fit.

I still couldn't get the hoses to line up without interfering with the belly pan. I'm done for the day and will reattempt the belly pan tomorrow.

Other than that, the oil cooler is doing its job. I took the car out for a spirited drive and oil temps never went above 210 (88 degrees outside).

I have the kit and it works great!

Not a single issue since it has been installed. Except lower oil temps, typically +30deg.

Interesting you mention the belly pan. My lines route no where near the belly pan. They sit in the front lower lip of the bumper in front of the belly pan then up through the radiator casement.
