15yrs in the industry and not once have i had a bad duramax oil cooler. You said its a common failure, the stats would disagree. And the pictures you posted look more like head gasket failure or water pump failures ive seen. But its great for a youtube comment to get people to buy product especially if you have a discount code. Ive personally had 5 duramaxes in my family, with 2 of them being mine, 2 lb7/2 lbz/l5p.

Did it before the Banks kit. Scoured the parts catalog with a friend. Built a Franken motor. LML block, front cover and oil pump, L5P oil cooler, LBZ heads and injection.

Another great video! Thank you for sharing the installation video. It's eye-opening just how much better the 2020+ Duramax oil cooler is than previous generations. The GM cooler included in the kit is the same as you'd find in a 2024 Duramax L5P.

Installing this on an engine sitting on a pallet is a horse of a different color. With the engine on the truck (as would be for about 95% of us) it’s a major task. Gotta drop your front axle for access to the cooler for 4X4 trucks and the coolant pipe is tricky.

Put that banks filter on LLY Kodiak C 4500 makes a big difference. Truck run cooler but I use a Baldwin two micron I use Royal purple synthetic I just had a oil analysis done on the last oil change. The numbers came back excellent.

I installed a banks oil cooler on my lml when I did my head gaskets. So much easier with the heads out of the way. I love the cooler. It does seem to help out on the road running hotshot. I also had the water pump out when I did it to replace the water pump

I did this on my LB7 after one of the seals blew out, left me stranded in MT. One thing to note, on my LB7 exhaust manifold, I had to shave a little material off the manifold for it to fit. No issues in over 2 years now..

I had dmaxestore install there larger oil cooler ( same as Banks cooler ) on my lb7. Put it to a test this weekend with my lance camper around 3000 lbs and 14 ft big-tex car hauler with 3 atvs , pulling the Sierra mountains. Oil temp on my cts monitor reach a high as 255 and that was with my foot in it. Hope this helps.

I have an LML and was thinking about the Banks oil pan upgrade for this. If I am dropping the front axle anyway, this might be a good time to upgrade this too.

I just bought one of these for lbz. Didn't get it installed yet. I love amsoil but I will not buy their filters anymore. 2 out of 3 leaked. I don't think I've ever had other oil filters leak before.

My baby max runs hot as hell. When I am towing my travel trailer which weights in at 6400lbs it's not uncommon to see oil temps pushing 245 degrees. What worries me most is the thin oil specified for this engine. I would like to switch to 5W-30 for summer time but everyone says don't, maybe a better oil cooler for this engine might help too.

I think I have coolant coming from the driverside head on the very back... is this something that can be fixed by tightening down the head bolts? It's only when under heavy load. Otherwise, it's pretty dry...
@divelbiss363 ай бұрын
I had the same issue with my lb7 and it’s very common with the heat from the up pipe right at the back of the head. If you have stock head bolts I would not try tightening them, they’re a torque to yield bolt and they can fail if tightened again after heat cycling. I replaced my head gaskets with mahle grade c gaskets then did arp 2000 head studs. I also put heat shield pipe wrap on both up pipes.
