I'll have to see what the WIS says, if it says. I'm thinking this is
what the guy who had it left it at the dealer for, traded it in or
something then it went to a Copart auction. I'm guessing like a 8-10hr
job by the book but I don't know, might not be that long but it appears
to be somewhat involved. The guy I bought it from said it was the oil
cooler issue but I'm not seeing any evidence of oil leak except a bit at
the rear around the bell housing, nothing significant.
Oh well, fun times...

The good news is that the oil cooler on the CL600 looks to be ok.
So no near-total engine tear down to replace it. Sorta good news
is that the issue now appears to be the right cam position sensor,
the code for which I saw when I was checking the car out. I think
that’s what’s causing poor running.
Ordered the part, $55, it came yesterday so I figured I could do a
quick swap. Wrong. There is no way to get the thing out without
removing (partially) the intake manifold as it lacks about an inch
or two of clearance to slide it out of its hole. Bugger. I curse
the engine engineers.
