    So are you saying you did not get a cooler or are you asking what cooler you got?

    Some have used...

    the stock CVT oil cooler that mounts up above the AC condensor. Bolts right up to the stock radiator for a very clean instal.

    I do believe this is what you seek in RealOEM

    RealOEM.com BMW R50 Cooper OIL COOLER/OIL COOLING PIPE

    It's a trick setup since it fits out of the box, ain't cheap...

    Might want to try auto recyclers too

    as I'm sure there are one or two CVT Minis that are down for the count cause of an expensive transmission failure... Worth a shot.

    So all you got was the adapter plate?

    Did you check out the link I posted.....? $50 for a cooler is a good deal.
