Hi. I have a 1999 Cobra 4.6 32V DOHC with oil coming out of a small hole in the bottom of my oil cooler when the engine is running. Does anyone know if this hole is suppost to be there. It has no threads for a plug.

OMG Dude! All '99 and '01 Cobras must be doing this at this time. I just got back from the dealership today arguing with the service rep that there is a small hole on the oil cooler and that it's leaking oil.

I drop my car off and they said the leak was coming from the oil filter. I told them they are wrong, and they would not believe me. I refused to pick up my car tonight until they put it up on the rack and I showed them.
They said, oh...never new that was there.

Are all Service Departments this incompetent? Last time I took my car in, they said my rear tires where wearing and that they rotated my tires for me. Guess what brainiac, I have 17X275 in rear and 17X245 fronts. They put my 275's in the front and 245's in the rear.
