FAQ:
Is this a complete cooler replacement for PBC500230?
Yes—this kit is designed to service/replace PBC500230, with cooler, housing gasket, banjo bolts, and seals.
Will it fix oil in coolant?
If the cooler core or seals were the source, replacing them typically resolves oil/coolant cross-contamination. Flush system thoroughly.
Does it fit non-Td5 Discovery 2 or Defender?
No—Td5 engines only. V8 and later diesel models use different coolers.
