Prior to Montreal F1 trip, I pulled the front bumper cover to clean radiators on Boxster S.
Even at 45k miles, the radiators were loaded with CRAP.
Shop vac took care of it.
A closer look revealed that the right side radiator(s) are stacked one atop the other on this car!
-Likely a/c radiator + engine coolant unit.
I carefully separated them and saw that CRAP had found it's way behind the a/c radiator and onto rad #2.
Got shopvac out again.
After I buttoned everything up, I realized that the ambient temp sensor wasn't in position, but jammed between bumper cover and radiator ducting.
Took it apart again.
Since time was limited and I was quite finished with ************************ up for the day, I didn't look into whether or not it was necessary to separate the driver side rads.
Anyway, it was great fun driving up to Quebec ( 8hrs), but driving back I was practicing my hydroplaning skills for 12 hrs!
