You know that at an F1 pit stop some of the mechanics stick their arms in the air intakes of the cars and pull out track debri and other ' stuff' .
Well have you had a look at the ' stuff' cuddling the 2 radiators at the front of your cars recently? I have just pulled out 18 months worth of rubbish including a tree' s worth of leaves, 5 crisps packets, 4 cigarette dogs ends, 2 spiders (one was a big b****r), and a lump of polystyrene. I fully expected to find a birds nest and a couple of chicks!
There doesnt seem to be a natural outlet for this stuff once its got stuck in front of the radiators. I dont imagine it will alter the effectiveness of the radiators but the amount of dampness behind the leaves once I cleared them out seems like a potential cause of rot for the radiators in the long term.
I wonder whats lurking in your front end?
Happy hunting!
