INTERCOOLER

Am I right in thinking that the aero and viggen INTERCOOLER is the same as the tid?

The TiD models, the Aero and the Viggen were all fitted with the crossflow intercooler (air in on one side and out the other).

The 2.0t (154bhp T5/ 150bhp T7 lpt), 2.0T (185bhp T5/T7) and 2.0 SE Sport HOT (2.0T 200bhp T5) were all fitted with a dual-pass intercooler (air in and out on one side, so air has to do a 180deg turn at one end of the intercooler)

The crossflow intercooler used on Aero, Viggen and TiD models is more efficient.

I was just thinking because people sell the viggen ones for a mint and the aero a little cheaper but the tid is peanuts. Better not shout to loud or they'll go up.

ALL T7 cars were fitted with a cross flow intercooler, not just the Aero/Viggen (P/N 47 29 521). It is indeed the same part for the diesels too.

It was the earlier T5 models that had the dual pass.

My memory failed me on T7 150bhp 2.0t model, then.
