Antifreeze leak around oil filter holder

[cobra7603]

Hi,
I have an 03 cobra supercharged.
Lately, overnight, I discovered a spot of antifreeze on the floor. About 3" in diameter.
It doesn't run hot and the reservoir level is good.
I started putting towels around wet areas to pinpoint where it is coming from.
It appears to be around the oil filter holder, as coolant circulates through this.
Does anyone know if there is a gasket inside that I can replace or is something loose that just needs tightened.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

I have had the same problem and I came across this. Just haven't had a chance to get down there and work on it.

:lol:
Like Roy said, probably you oil cooler leaking, and your o rings need to be replaced, but I didn't work for me
I would still try, look up speed concepts for the kit, it's easy to do, hopefully it works u.

I ordered the speed concepts kit and rebuilt mine 2 years ago, works great and still bone dry.

Another oil cooler oring bites the dust. I'm beginning to notice these threads popping up more around the seasonal changes, late fall, early spring. Anyone else notice this?

Expansion and contraction, good observation :beer:

you could get lucky by just snugging it up, wouldn't hurt to try that to start with. 1/2 inch hex head

I agree with all the above
