Thats what I thought, but I was just coming out of the market when I see what looks like a 2nd Oil cooler on my car. As I got down to look at it I was thinking; might be the rock gard when bam! it hits me. WTF? thats a 2nd Oil cooler?! On my A/T 8?
So now what dos this mean? I have to add more Oil to my car when I change the Oil? I'm so lost
You may sir.

I might be completely wrong, but I thought that when they upgraded the Auto's for 06 with the 6 port engine, the auto's also recieved the dual oil coolers. Then again, you've been around here for a long time and probably dont have an 06. 
Whatever, the dual coolers look pretty sweet in my opinion.

If you have two now, isn't that better? You don't have to add more oil since the oil in both coolers never get fully flushed out in an oil change.

Look at your oil fill cap. See the rubber hose that hooks up just under the cap??
Where does that go to? Does it go straight to the intake accordian tube.....or does it detour somewhere?

Thank you Gomez. Youve helped me a lot. I'm at work right now. But when I get off I'll look and see. I will also meet with my friend and take some pics with his digi cam.
You guys want to see her? you got it. I'll change it when I get home
