Setrab oil filter sandwich plate?

obender66 · 12-09-2022, 05:46 PM

Has anyone tried Setrab sandwich plate? I keep running into replacing gaskets on Mocal plate (Z1 oil cooler kit) due to leaks springing up. Seem to last anywhere from few years to less than a year.
Setrab plate seems to have different gasket design.

Thank you,

My Mocal has never leaked since I installed it back in Jan of 2012.

You dont have factory oil cooler plate. Easier access, less disturbance to the plate.
Now anyone else wants to share happy moments?

Nice find. I’m curious too as mine seems to last about 3 years before it started seeping. Only on my second one now so I’ll see how long this one last. I think I like the design of that one more with the o ring groove. The mocal is similar to VW factory water to oil coolers with a flat gasket and they leak over time as well.
