Had a new oil cooler installed... With the same problem... I'm really out of ideas
-
What kind of engine ? which engine model ? How many miles on it? Are sure after the repair the engine oil level was full? Are you sure the cooling system was clean after the repair ? Ben

Two options.
1) Drive it until explodes, which won't take long.
2) Take it to the dealer, or Cummins or Detroit and let them figure it out. -
Should be the oil cooler but you said you changed that. What transmission do you have? Does it have a trans oil cooler? Most likely it does. It could be that. Same thing will happen.
Is there any coolant in engine oil?
Is there any coolant in transmission? -
.... ok so it was the oil cooler... I pressure tested the old one the first time and no leaks were visiable until a friend told me to first flush out the OIL COOLER with GAS. As soon as I did this and re- pressure test the oil cooler and sure enough the LEAK WAS FOUND... BAD OIL COOLER

For me it was the transmission cooler.
