Caution!.
- Some vehicles have a boost pressure display in place of the temperature display. To ensure that your engine enjoys a long service life, you should avoid high engine speeds, full acceleration and heavy engine loads for the first 15 minutes or so after starting a cold engine. The amount of time the engine takes to warm up depends on the outside temperature. If you are not sure whether the engine is warm, you can use the engine oil temperature
►Link as a guide.
- Additional lights and other accessories in front of the air inlet reduce the cooling effect of the radiator. At high outside temperatures and high engine loads, there is a risk of the engine overheating.
- The front spoiler also ensures proper distribution of the cooling air when the vehicle is moving. If the spoiler is damaged this can reduce the cooling effect, which could cause the engine to overheat. Obtain professional assistance.
