Default Looking for a Transmission Oil Cooler Return Line

I need to find the Transmission Oil Cooler Return line for a 1996 Jaguar XJS 4.0L with the Automatic Transmission. The part number is NHE-4510-BA.


All the places say new ones are on back-order but I need one now.

Does anyone have a good used one they would sell at a reasonable price?


It's item #2 in this picture, at the front it connects to the bottom of the radiator, runs back, and then crosses over the top of the transmission to connect via a banjo fitting to the left side of the transmission.



NHE4510BA

I have a new NHE4500BA. It looks like the picture but the part number is different.

Thanks Danny, I think that's the output pipe on the other side, which I should probably also replace if the price is reasonable even though that's not the side that has came apart.

What would you take for it shipped to zip code 72501 in Arkansas?

If the hose section is the problem and the metal pipe is OK a local hydraulic repair shop should be able to replace the hose section only.

I tried but the ones around here (all two of them) said they couldn't.

Try a web search and contact other shops.
Coventry West in Georgia has a good used parts service.
If all fails you can buy a crimp tool (about $150.00) and do your own.

Thanks and yep, a web search was where I first started at and usually pretty good for finding many parts but no one has one of these listed on-line. May have to call a few of them voice just to make sure they don't have one that's not on their web-sites.

Just take the bits along and ask them to do it. I n bet that once they see it they will take all of 10 mins to do it!

That's what I did. Neither place would do it. Said they will not re-use ends and have no ends the size of whats on it and wasn't even sure what sizes they are.

If you cannot find a place to swage it, why not cut off the flexible part. The metal pipes should have "bumps" in them, then buy a top quality bit of aeroquip steel braided flexible oil pipe, slide it over the bumps and put two stainless hose clips on each end (belt and braces) and refit?
The pressures involved are not that high. On my GM400 the OEM oil cooler steel pipes to in-radiator cooler are connected with a flexible held with one clip each end. If no bumps on the pipes, slide a compression olive over each end and solder it in place. The pipe diameter is almost certain to be a metric size.

Thanks, and that's how I have it running right now but don't like it because it's got the rubber line running behind that hot exhaust manifold. The shop did not have any of the real heavy duty hydraulic line either, just the softer more flexible stuff, even though it is specifically for transmission line they said they wouldn't use it long with it that close behind the manifold with that much heat. At the time it was just a temporary fix because we had to get it off the lift at the local shop and back home.

Heatshield Products 210051 HP Fire Armor Sleeve Black 1-1/2" ID x 10' Heat Shield Fire Sleeve


or find the correct I.D. to fit your lines... 1.5" might be to big...


I found this product on Amazon...




Amazon.com: Heatshield Products 210051 HP Fire Armor Sleeve Black 1-1/2" ID x 10' Heat Shield Fire Sleeve: Automotive Amazon.com: Heatshield Products 210051 HP Fire Armor Sleeve Black 1-1/2" ID x 10' Heat Shield Fire Sleeve: Automotive


they have a drop down box for the I.D.

place that over you lines while assembling them where they are close to the header/manifold I am going to do this to my power steering lines


making your own is satisfying... ( I bought my Power steering line though... found them too cheap... )
