Oil cooler: only 4 bolts to remove it?
Doing a reseal on my 951 with the engine still in the car (don't ask): does the oil cooler bolted above the lower balance shaft housing really just have the 4 13mm bolts holding it in? I've removed them & banged/tapped a bit but no-go.
Thanks, mark

Looking at the oil cooler plate/housing gasket it appears to have 4 holes for bolts.
Did you remove the OPRV valve with the 24mm top from the oil cooler housing? EDIT: This is the only photo I could find  If it still sticks it may be due to RTV silicone sealer that was applied too thick on the housing seal. It may have sealed the housing to the engine block.

IT's never been out of the car & difficult to get tools in there, even with the exhaust manifolds removed. All 4 bolts are off but something else is binding it in there for sure.
