How long should an oil cooler hose last?

Answer by  McCheese (1248)

Most service manuals recommend that an oil cooler hose be changed every 60,000 miles. In reality, they usually last much longer than that and most people will not have them changed until they leak or rupture. It's a pretty expensive job to have somebody go through the labor intensive job of replacing an oil cooler hose if it's fine.
