No. The purpose of a compressor is not to cool it is to compress. A freon compressor keeps freon under pressure to restore its liquid state. If you tried to run oil trhough it the compressor would probably blow up pretty quickly because you can't compress a liquid. You can compress a gas to a liquid but it won't compress beyond that. For an external oil cooler go to a junk yard and get a heater core or even a factory oil cooler from a transmission.

Difference between internal combustion engines and external combustion engines?

In an Internal Combustion Engine, the fuel is burned in the cylinder or vessel. Eg. Diesel or Petrol engine used in Cars.Internal engine has its energy ignited in the cylinder, like 99.9% of engines today.In an External Combustion Engine, the internal working fuel is not burned. Here the fluid is being heated from an external source. The fuel is heated and expanded through the internal mechanism of the engine resulting in work. Eg. Steam Turbine, Steam engine Trains. An external combustion example is a steam engine where the heating process is done in an boiler out side the engine.

How are magnents used in car motors?

Engines, not motors. One example of a magnet - not actually in the engine, but typically attached to the engine - is an air conditioning compressor clutch. When the electromagnet is actuated, it pulls the clutch into the engaged position, where it remains until the electromagnet is shut off. As far as the actual engine is concerned, there's the drain plug for the oil - it's magnetized so that, if a component is losing metal fragments, they'll attach to the drain plug.


If there is a leak in the oil cooler lines could that be one of the main reasons why some vehicles especially in warm-hot weather or long distance travel to overheat?

If your Oil Cooler lines are leaking then you run out of oil and your engine will overheat & "Seize".

What is the function of the oil cooler on a 2001 Volkswagen Passat and is it a major repair?

An oil cooler extends the life of an engine by specifically keeping the oil 'cooler' that what the regular cooling system can do (which is designed to cool the entire engine). If your car has some SEEPAGE around the cooler and/or lines that is not the end of the world; but if it LEAKS repair it. Since it is external to the engine I would not expect it to be a major repair.

Is a steam engine an example of an internal combustion engine?

No, the steam engine is an external combustion engine because the steam is heated by heat generated by combustion outside externally through heat transfer. A spark ignition engine is an example of an internal combustion engine.
