Re: A Panel removal for cooling... Worth checking that the sound-deadener stuck to the inside of the bonnet isn't blocking airflow out of the venty-venturi-thingy-dents that are already in the A-panel. Usually, it is...

Re: A Panel removal for cooling... banjo wrote:  DSCF3535 by 2steamhorses(Bob), on Flickr I shot this at Salbris a neat way of getting more heat out of the engine bay,the boot pretty cool to!! A simulare setup made a 10°C difference on my oil temperature on the motorway in Serbia cruising 100/110 km/h with about 30°C ambiant temperature. I think it works, cause I would think there is a depression behind the rear edge of the triangular panel (if that makes sense), sucking of air flow from under the bonnet. Otherwise the air is pretty much stuck between innerwings, panels, bulkhead and bonnet.
