A heat exchanger for a motor vehicle exhaust includes a tubular body having a first end, a second end, a peripheral sidewall, and at least two flow passages that extend between the first end and the second end. The at least two flow passages include at least one heat exchange fluid flow passage and at least one bypass fluid flow passage. A heat exchange coil is positioned in the at least one heat exchange fluid flow passage. The heat exchange coil has an inlet and an outlet extending through the sidewall of the tubular body. A valve is provided for selecting between the at least one heat exchange fluid flow passage and the at least one bypass fluid flow passage.
