How serious is an oil cooler line leak ???? I was told today while I was getting my oil changed that the cooler line has a leak. Is this a costly repair ???

It could be that they meant the transmission cooler line. If so, how easy is it to fix that problem ??

An oil cooler line leak is a lot more serious on a car that has an oil cooler. On one that doesn't have one (like a j-body) it's nothing to worry about. I would suggest taking the car to a more reputable, more knowledgeable shop next time to get the oil changed. See what they say.
