Oil Cooler Question

Will a oil change be included with the warranty repairs for changing an oil cooler, The reason I ask is because my truck is currently In for a oil cooler replacement. Also don't they have to flush out your oil system when changing the plugged oil cooler? ( Just trying to figure how much out of pocket I will have to come up with )

What was the outcome? I've personally seen both ways. I've had dealers charge me "Shop Fees" which covered random stuff like oil, cleaners, they even said it covered shop rags. I was only 17 so prob didn't know better. Another dealer filled up my fuel from 1/4 to FULL and it was on the house.

hmmm I'd think they would just change it and it would be free. I just had an idler pully replaced due to the cold weather chirp..they replaced the belt for free.

since it was under warranty and 13 degrees I let them spend the hour under the hood.

They changed the oil for free and did a radiator flush for free, I had the truck back for 2 weeks and the wrench came back on, its still throwing the same codes so they will try diagnosing it. They said some of the sensors might be bad. (I hope its just a sensor)
