Oil Cooler O-Ring???
#31
Did mine yesterday, it was a 22mm. I recommend using a 6 point socket or wrench not a 12 point because the head is very short and could strip. I don't know what the torque is suppose to be so I just snugged it up well.
Make sure you keep the new o-ring and inside the housing and bolt clean from debris, I cleaned the inside of my 22mm socket before using it to remove the cooler.

Just changed mine out it was pretty straight forward. Going to replace my valve covers next to have that peace of mind (not leaking).

Just changed out my o-ring pretty simple. seemed to have sprung a leak in the general area so I hope this fixed that issue.
Regarding the relief valve....how is it removed? I tried using some needle nose pliers but couldn't grip it. Does anyone have any input on how to change this? I'll likely do this during the next oil change.

Still have the relief valve in my tool-box, although I don't think i'll make an attempt to replace it. While an easy job overall, I'm too lazy to take it apart again

I never changed mine out. I tried a few methods, including threading a bolt inside the vale to pull it out but it didn't quite work for me. Left it in place and just replaced the O-ring. Was a pretty straightforward job although slightly diferent in the AWD cars. Been leak free ever since.
