Default Failed Oil Cooler?
Has anyone ever heard of the Oil Cooler located in the front of the body under the "Oval' opening failing? I would be interested in some input here.

I have utilised the Oil Cooler that most builders utilise for the engine, but in my car this Oil Cooler provides cooling for my 6L80E 6 speed Tiptronic Transmission. My concern here is:-
Would my transmission be cranking out more pressure to the Oil Cooler than the Oil Pump on an
LS2 6 litre GM engine which could in fact cause the Oil Cooler to fail?
