Cl65 AMG
Maintenance, CL65, Plugs, boots, water Pump
So as the title reads I'm doing some Maintenance on my 2005 CL65. I am replacing the plugs, plug boots, water pump and ABC pump as well. I'll post some pictures soon if any one needs to see anything up close. i am also thinking about another I/C cooler. I was looking to install one on the front of the radiator. I am guessing there are those who have done this but I don't really know what size fits for sure. Also I hope to get all this done tomorrow (Saturday 9/10/16.
Question,
how about swapping the factory I/C to the front of the A/C condenser ???

You may have a better shot moving this to the W215 CL forum not the W230 SL forum.
Regardless, see the link below, I had a few pics shown on post #13. I'm assuming you mean a supplemental heat exchange. It was a while ago, but I know it can be done without removing the bumper cover, that should be a big help. Also, I have replaced the pump with a Meziere WP136 . I think replacing with slightly larger or relocating in front of the AC condenser will not give you as much benefit as an increase in capacity and surface area of a supplemental heat exchange. I don't have a basis of comparison just my opinion. Good luck.
