I have a 2002 z-28 and recently found an oil fluid in my radiator. upon checking all hose I found that it has a power steering cooler. Has anyone had this same problem if so what is it?My engine oil and trans. oil are fine. I have not been able to find a parts house that carries this cooler. Help if you can.

 

I am sure your local GM dealer will be glad to sell you one.

 

wow i didnt think any car came with a power steering cooler are you sure that is the problem and you didnt get it confused on what went were and what lines were actualy going into the radiator,is your car a A4 or M6,if it is a A4 it should have a trans cooler that goes in the radiator.i could be wrong but i really dout you r power steering has a cooler.

 

The cooler is on the main line coming from the engine back to the radiator.
It is ametal shaft that is connected betweeen the engine and radiator and
has two lines run to it. One is from the power steering tank and one is from
the gear box. I'm pretty sure all 02 z-28 and ss came stock with this.

 

huh i guess i'm wrong. well you lean something new every day. why would your power steering need a cooler just dosent make sense. would like to see some pics so i can get a better idea of what your talking about.

 

Usualy you could see an engine oil cooler and trans cooler going into the radiator. Power steering on a car would have just a tube that runs under or down low on the radiator suport. My 91 has a power sterring cooler like that. It does not go into the radiator. Unless you have an actual cooler that you are calling a radiator. They will look like external trans coolers. You would usualuy see that kind of power steering cooler on pick ups

 

How can I upload pic.

This piece is connected with hose from engine back to the radiator.

Ohhh Well to be honest with you I don't think that is a factory part. I never saw one before on any Camaros, or anything, that I worked on.
