C63 coupe 2019 lower below headlight right and left intercooler grills
Was just at the dealership and the service associate mentioned that road debris can damage the two intercoolers below the headlights on either side. He said he’s seen that often and a way to avoid that is to install an after market grills to keep road debris from damaging the intercoolers.
was looking online for these grills found a couple but wanted input on if anybody has experience with certain grills and installation. I’m looking for something that’s hidden, not trying to change the aesthetic.
This was an issue on older model years that caused lots of punctured radiators to the point that AMG starting with model year 2019 installs protective mesh from the factory. You can see the black plastic mesh across all the radiators. If you don't have them for some reason, then yes, it's worth installing them.
The service associate showed me the intercooler and I don’t think I noticed a mesh I bought the car brand new model year 2019 so I’d be surprised if the mesh was not present. The service associate mentioned Mercedes does not provide the part, but based on what you’re saying it sounds like they do for the FL and I should be able to get it installed from them in case it’s missing.
I had taken the car to an automotive center where they checked for coolant leaks. Maybe they removed the mesh and never put it back on.
I guess I will have to take a closer look when I get the car back or talk to the service associate.
