Aircon line? Would my car be affected? It's a euro 4 2010 Fg, I thought only mk2 have the line issues. Stepped cooler costs a lot more dough, not worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 13y 6m 9d Posted 10/07/13 07:55 AM Share Posted 10/07/13 07:55 AM Yea Chris knows! But he's been told heaps before and hasn't changed anything! If the cooler was just 10mm thinner and the mounting brackets were properly though put it would be great! Yea stepped cooler costs a bit but you wait till you install one n then tell me it's not worth the money. Me and my old man spent 2 and a half days. We used every power tool under the sun as well as a drill press, drop saw, oxy torch and welder! Lucky I live on a farm and had plenty of resources to use but for the average joe it would be a bit of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulletime Donating Members 937 Member For: 13y 3m 19d Gender: Male Posted 10/07/13 11:34 AM Share Posted 10/07/13 11:34 AM Everything lol.Instructions didn't include half of what had to be done. Had to make new mounting brackets cause the ones supplied are too thin and don't line up, no measurements given for where to redrill radiator mounts, had to cut part of the metal crush bar which wasnt told had to be done, lower mounting brackets were useless, wiring harness had to be moved, bolts had to be ground back, air con hoses had to be ben out of the way, I think that was it lol. And after all that it only just fit so we siliconed where it could touch when it moves to avoid damage. And on top of all that I was missing nuts, bolts, clamps and some hoses. Too be honest I wouldn't buy it again, I would have bought the pw stepped, well worth the extra $600And that doesn't include the problems we had with the turbo side and battery relo!ssshhh!!!!tttt that's terrible!!Wasn't planning on rapid, after this pretty sure won't be. If I end up installing myself then stepped could be the way to go otherwise thinking plazmanan. Glad u got it in the end but sounds like rubbish, be keen to have a look at how it's turned out.

Had just been giving it the old spray out with the air compressor for the past 5-6 services. Bloody hell talk about dirty. Can really hear the induction sound again now.
