An oil cooler has alternating first and second heat exchanger plates coupled to a base heat exchanger plate. The first heat exchanger plate includes upstanding impressions extending upwardly a first distance from a generally planar surface away from the base heat exchanger plate. The second heat exchanger plate includes descending impressions extending downwardly a second distance from the second generally planar surface toward the base heat exchanger plate. Planar portions of the first and second plates are spaced apart a third distance. The first distance and the second distance are each less than the third distance. The upstanding impressions extend along a first length, and the descending impressions extend along a second length. A third length of each upstanding impression abuts a fourth length of the respective descending impression. The third length is less than the first length and the fourth length is less than the second length.
