Split coolant
Hello all
My wife drive a '14 GL550. I read somewhere that I can split the coolant from the ic from the engine circuit. I tried the search but couldn't find anything. Just wondering if anyone here done that?

No, from what I remember the 13 & 14 have the intercooler coolant tied into the engine coolant. So it's always at 190 degrees. The 15 and up have the coolant split, engine coolant in a separate circuit than the ic coolant. By doing that the engine coolant is still at 190 degrees and ic coolant is right about ambient temperatures, hence more power.
