So yeah. My buddies said that i should get a heatshield? s/p ?
as far as keeping it cool when it IS back up && running like it used to. But they said they believe the intercooler pump might be out. I am at mere human power levels i miss my neck breaking torque/power what could it be?

I cant even top out with out the kompressor cutting out mid or bottom 5th gear.

1 or 2 speed runs will do the same thing.

I know the 3.2 s/c AMG's have an issue with the intercooler pump failing and causing similar issues.............so it's probably the same for the 5.5 s/c AMG's.

Classical bad Intercooler Pump.


Your options are Johnson C30 which is a direct bolt on, with minor wiring - $175, plus $100 labor. Or I have several used, good stock pumps - $75, plus $75 labor.
