Hi people, just started up the scorp after a very cold (-6) night and a huge pool of oil appeared beneath the car....I can see it leaking from a kind of mini radiator in front of the main radiator....is this an oil cooler...I have a 2.0 16valve saloon.
How do I replace this part?
Cheers

Could also be the power steering cooler thats under there as well .
Both fairly straight forward to replace. The Power steering cooler is just a large "U" not an actual radiator.

  Whichever one it is    they're fairly easy to replace,  just undo  the  small bolts and  hose clips ,  although access is  limited  it's possible to  work from above,  using  the  gap between  crossmember and  radiator or from underneath using  the    bumper/air dam   vents.
