I have an 05 Z-51 that has a transmission cooler however they don't really have an oil cooler that I am aware of. The radiator, water pump, and thermostat are mainly what cools the car.

I upgraded my 11 GS A6 to a DeWitt's radiator with both engine oil cooling and transmission cooling. Do all I can to mitigate the heat out here in Arizona.

I saw that radiator. When mine needs replacing I will go that way.

You can also add the Z51 M6 cooler to your car. It's bolt in if you don't mind being patient with routing the hoses. All the parts are available. I added it to my GS A6. Dropped the oil temp around 20 degrees.
