As per the title, I am after two hoses, that run from the oil filter housing to the oil cooler behind the bumper on the driver side. I thought I'd check if anyone wants to get rid of theirs locally, before I source them from overseas.

If it helps, these are the part numbers for the two hoses:

17227567208
17227567207

Mine are still fine, but I am at 181k kms now, pretty much on borrowed time.

Have seen them rupture on vtl’s car at low 17X,XXXkm



Have seen them rupture on someone else’s car at similar kilometres, from the Facebook groups. Not sure if you’re on it.

I am after the lowest k’s ones I can get locally, up to 100k-110k kms is fine.

I have priced up new ones, both lines are $360 AUD delivered to my door. But I was thinking, all the folks that have upgraded their oil coolers to aftermarket ones, should have their old ones lying around.

Otherwise, I’ll buy them new, I do heaps of late night and early mornings mountain runs per year (pretty much once a week or once a fortnight), just for the sake of driving fun. $360 for new lines is definitely cheaper than a 500kms tow truck ride from Mt Baw Baw to Kew

135i and 335i lines are different part numbers, I am after 335i lines

I'm on 160k and they have an oily odour. I reckon i'm on borrowed time too.
The set i have in the shed are off a 135i but they also stink too. Not sure if they just all stink or stinking is a sign of imminent failure?
