Radiator intercooler. Porsche 95B Macan S / GTS / Turbo 2014-18

Radiator intercooler.
The radiator intercooler is a charge air cooler designed for turbocharged Porsche Macan models. This intercooler reduces the temperature of compressed air from the turbocharger before it reaches the intake manifold.

Fits:
Porsche 95B.1 Macan S 3.0L 2014 - 2018
Porsche 95B.1 Macan GTS 3.0L 2014 - 2018
Porsche 95B.1 Macan Turbo 3.6L 2014 - 2018

The intercooler cools compressed air from the turbocharger before it enters the intake manifold.
Cooler air = denser air, which allows more oxygen into the combustion process. This improves:

• Performance (higher, more consistent power)
  
• Efficiency (better combustion, reduced fuel waste)
  
• Engine protection (reduces detonation/knock risks caused by high intake temperatures)
  
  

Symptoms Of Faulty / Worn Intercooler:
If the intercooler develops leaks, cracks, or blockages, you may notice:

• Loss of power or poor acceleration, especially under boost.
  
• Whistling or hissing sounds from leaks when accelerating.
  
• Engine Light for boost pressure or intake air temperature codes.
• Poor fuel economy or engine running hotter than usual.
  
• Visible oil residue or coolant contamination (if a leak mixes fluids).
  
  

Why Replacement Matters:

• Restores full turbo performance by ensuring dense, cool air reaches the engine.
  
• Prevents overheating & knock that can cause costly engine damage.
  
• Maintains efficiency & emissions control for compliance and fuel economy.
