Thanks for the correction on the steering lock. I just thought very little of the OEM heat exchanger that I didn’t even think of that.

I hear you, most folks here don't think much of it... I actually removed mine and ended up reinstalling it - in my case it has been very effective.

I feel like my 09 sport/touring has an OEM oil cooler as well, is that possible? It definitely has something right behind the bumper that looks like an oil cooler...

No oil cooler in 09. It does have a small power steering cooler, however.

Yup - that's what he's thinking of. I also mistook that for an oil cooler the first time I saw it!

edit: are you the original owner? an oil cooler is a very popular upgrade for these cars - so it may indeed be an oil cooler installed before you got the car. Take a picture and post it.

Nah I've only had it a year. I'm thinking it's the power steering cooler as you said though. My oil temp has never gone over 220 though. But it gets there pretty quick with a little spirited driving. I imagine if I kept pushing it would go higher.

It's the wimpy power steering cooler that you are looking at. It's on the passenger side. The OEM heat exchanger (proper name) showed up in 2015 I believe.
