So i was going over a dip this morning on my way to work and went a bit too fast, and ripped my black plastic piece covering the intercooler off...It didnt come off all the way, but the right side is hanging down. How do i re-attach that?

 

Fixed.

The black plastic air dam is attached with 2 plastic push pin style clips. You can find them at any auto parts store.

 

Whatever you do DO NOT BUY OEM REPLACEMENTS FROM THE DEALERSHIP!!!!!!!!!!

they will try to charge you $6 per clip

 

Cool thank you very much for your reply.

I thought it was called an intercooler? in my service manual it says intercooler.

 

The intercooler is in the intake manifold. The heat exchanger is sandwiched between the radiator and a/c condensor.

 

oh I see. that makes sense.

 

I just ripped mine completely off, got tired of repinning it up there every time it fell down.

 

lol i was thinking about taking it off but honestly didnt know what it did.

 

Leave it on. It provides low-med crusing speed cooling to the radiator & stock heat exchanger. It does serve a purpose.
