I'm gonna look a right dumb &@£! here but I need to ask...
I have an a4 Avant 2.0 tdi 170 (BRD engine), loads of crud in intercooler boost pipes so imagine a shed load has fallen in to the intercooler. Was thinking of getting them cleaned out but worried about doing this as have read it's a bad idea.
Some questions:
What would the likely cause for this slimy crud be?
Is it ok to clean intercooler?
Now the stupid question...
I was looking at prices of new intercooler but only kept coming up with left side intercooler only. I always thought there was two of them, one on left and one on right?
Can anyone advise of part number or numbers! For intercooler(s) for my car and if it would have sensor in it/them? Options for aftermarket ones say check if you have sensors before ordering.
