{"product":{"id":11426529444182,"title":"HEL Direct Fit Oil Cooler Kit for VAG MQB EA888.3 \u0026 EA888.4 2.0 TFSI Engines","body_html":"\u003cp\u003e\n   The VAG \u003cb\u003eEA888\u003c\/b\u003e 2.0 TFSI engine is a common powerhouse across several popular models in the Audi S-Line, Volkswagen GTI and R, Seat FR, and Skoda VRS range. After the success of our previous Ford RS, Toyota GR, and Honda Type R direct-fit oil cooler kits, we knew we had to keep the development rolling with other popular models. Our goal was simple; to design and manufacture \u003cb\u003euser-friendly\u003c\/b\u003e, easy-to-install kits that require either \u003cb\u003eno\u003c\/b\u003e, or \u003cb\u003every little\u003c\/b\u003e modifications. \n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n   Every HEL oil cooler kit features a high-quality, \u003cb\u003ereliable\u003c\/b\u003e oil cooler manufactured by \u003cb\u003eSetrab\u003c\/b\u003e in Sweden. We have been using Setrab coolers for 10+ years, and have never had any issues with the performance or quality. Having an oil cooler fail or even burst is not something you want to experience, especially in demanding conditions and that is something we have \u003cb\u003enever\u003c\/b\u003e seen with Setrab's build quality. In the past, we've even had reports of front-end collisions and the Setrab oil cooler was the only component that still worked!\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n   All HEL direct-fitting oil cooler brackets are laser cut, precision folded, and powdercoated in Black to result in a \u003cb\u003estealthy\u003c\/b\u003e finish. Promoting direct airflow, the \u003cb\u003eSetrab\u003c\/b\u003e oil cooler was securely mounted behind the lower bumper grill proving as the most suitable location for \u003cb\u003eeffective cooling\u003c\/b\u003e, performance, and accessibility.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n   Delivered with \u003cb\u003epre-assembled\u003c\/b\u003e braided hoses and Aluminium fittings, our comprehensive kit has everything required for a \u003cb\u003estraightforward installation\u003c\/b\u003e. Using high-flow AN10 performance hose to deliver and return oil from the external oil cooler, this kit also includes a 90° oil filter take-off plate and spacer plate combination, which is equipped with a \u003cb\u003ebuilt-in thermostat\u003c\/b\u003e. The thermostat ensures that your engine oil flows to the external oil cooler \u003cb\u003eonly\u003c\/b\u003e when the oil reaches the desired temperature (\u003cb\u003e92°C\u003c\/b\u003e \/ 198°F). \n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n   Around 10% of the engine oil circulates through the oil cooler at any given time, this ensures a continuous flow that \u003cb\u003eprevents\u003c\/b\u003e air pockets and safeguards against thermal shock to the system. The surplus oil is then channelled back to the engine through the internal bypass system, promoting \u003cb\u003efaster warm-up\u003c\/b\u003e, providing added \u003cb\u003esafeguarding\u003c\/b\u003e in cold weather conditions, and \u003cb\u003eeliminates\u003c\/b\u003e the risk of overcooling.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n   Included with every kit is an easy-to-read installation manual. If you get stuck, our technical support team is \u003cb\u003ealways\u003c\/b\u003e happy to answer any questions you may have.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n   \u003cb\u003eImportant Notice: If your vehicle was manufactured before 2015, please ensure that the oil filter stem has been upgraded to the OE part #06L115678Q. Dealerships typically replaced and upgraded this part during routine oil changes shortly after its release. However, if your car has not undergone this upgrade, the updated oil filter stem is still available at Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, and Skoda dealerships. It is critical to install this part before fitting your HEL oil cooler kit. We strongly recommend against proceeding with the installation without this updated component.\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch6\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h6\u003e\n \u003ctable\u003e\n \u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eComponent Type\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eEngine Specific Oil Cooler Kit\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/b\u003e (Vehicle Manu. \u0026amp; Model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAudi\u003c\/b\u003e S3 \u0026amp; TTS \/ \u003cb\u003eVolkswagen\u003c\/b\u003e Golf GTI, Golf R \u0026amp; Arteon R \/ \u003cb\u003eSeat\u003c\/b\u003e Leon Cupra \/ \u003cb\u003eSkoda\u003c\/b\u003e Octavia VRS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/b\u003e (Engine)\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e2.0L TFSI\u003c\/b\u003e EA888.3 \u0026amp; EA888.4 Only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eThermostat Activation Temperature\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e92°C \/ 198°F\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOil Cooler\u003c\/b\u003e (Options)\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSetrab\u003c\/b\u003e Proline 6 Series 16 Row or 19 Row\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eHose \u0026amp; Fitting Size\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAN10 \/ -10 AN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eHose Type\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBraided AN Rubber (Black)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eOil Filter Included?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eYes\u003c\/b\u003e (Bosch #P7077)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrand\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003eHEL Performance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/auto.helperformance.com\/HEL-90TOSP\"\u003eHEL Thermostatic 90 Degree Oil Filter Sandwich Plate\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e1x HEL Engine Specific Oil Filter Spacer Plate (Not Available Separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e1x Bosch #P7077 Oil Filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e1x \u003cb\u003eSetrab\u003c\/b\u003e Oil Cooler (ProLine 6 Series - \u003cb\u003e16 Row\u003c\/b\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e \n   \u003cli\u003e1x HEL Engine Specific Oil Cooler Mounting Bracket Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e1x HEL AN10 Braided Hose Kit w\/ Fittings (Pre-Assembled)\u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e1x Installation Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003caside class=\"disclaimer\"\u003e \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note\u003c\/strong\u003e\n  \u003cdiv\u003eBefore operating the vehicle, it is the installer's responsibility to ensure that all components are fully tightened and secure.
