I have replaced too many to count ever sense the egr cooler's were introduced in mid 03. The reason the coolers are blowing is caused by heat restricted oil coolers. It is located right in the valley. Ford now recommends replacement of the oil cooler because the coolant is first pumped to the oil cooler then a direct path to the egr cooler. Well we finally figured that the oil cooler's become restricted due to lack of maintenence (coolant) and or just because. So the lack of coolant flowing threw the oil cooler starved the egr of coolant and it's cooling abilities so then the welds inside the cooler melt and fracture causing coolant and water to enter the intake and exhaust system. Our shop charges 15-16 hours to do the job at 110 an hour. This includes both the oil cooler, egr cooler, steam cleaning of intake to remove carbon build up, and cleaning the rusty turbo due to the water entering it. The cost of the parts can vary and the repair costs about $3300-4000. How this is the only way to do it. If you just replace the egr cooler and not the oil cooler you will not be correcting the main cause. In turn paying for it twice maybe three times. If the egr cooler is just replaced about $1000-1200 Maybe less due to parts. Labor would be about 6.5-7 hr. Well do it right the first time and you won't be wasting money down the road. Good luck
