Viano intercooler removal.

[rburnham11]

Hi all.

Could somebody tell me how to remove the intercooler please. Bumper off, pipes off, then looks like some sort of plastic clips holding it to the AC condenser, but how do I pop those off to allow me to remove it.
Also how much oil in the intercooler is acceptable? After popping the pipes off there was a fair amount of oil in the hoses. Also looks like some oil escaped at the fittings too.

Thanks
Rich

Plastic dowels push in from the front, held by torques screws from the rear.
Remove screws, drift dowels from the rear.
A bitch of a job, especially if tight.
