I find my 550 for the most part quite easy to work on, but there are a few annoying things. Nothing that bad, just annoying, 1) As already...
My 2001 550 now at 64,000 miles has had 3 new sets of engine mounts. First set at 10,000 miles in 2012 by a previous owner, I bought the car in...

Shouldn't be difficult, I seem to remember enough slack in the door harness to pull it out enough to disconnect, but it will work your way too!
If memory serves, you pull the wires up from inside the door and there should be some small connector(s) there that will fit through the rubber...
You need to remove the compete mirror assembly from the door, no need to separate the mirror from the base. In your last photo, you can see some...
Hi Charlie, go back to the first post and the Spal p/n is there. I think 575 shroud with 550 fans is the better choice, the Spal fans were easy...
A 575/612 shroud with 550 fans will fit in a 550. A 550 shroud with 575/612 fans will fit in a 550. A 575/612 shroud with 576/612 fans will not...
I think it might be possible to do without removing the radiator, but much easier if you do. It’s worth pulling the rad, I’m sure you will find...
I have it on my 550, it will fit, but you will need the corners off the radiator mounts in the car. There are also some rubber flaps you will...
About the shifter adjustment, unless the EAG kit is different from the OEM parts, that is not where you adjust the shifter, at least that's now...
Assuming it's the same as a 550, there should be a leather flap attached to the bottom of the binnacle.[ATTACH]
Sounds like the same symptoms I had. Coolant temp no problem as long as the the car is moving (and not necessarily highway speed, just moving),...
Definitely a good idea to move the power for the fans out of the fuse box.
Graham, you said your fans were running when the car got hot, so I suggest trying the following before removing your intake manifold. With a cold...
The left side sensor triggers the climate control ECU to turn on the fans, the right side sensor (if the left sensor fails) triggers the Motronic...
The temp sensors are the fan sensors by telling the ECU the coolant temp and the ECU turns in the fans. If both fans are running, it doesn’t sound...
That's from cruising around in the city (Toronto) mostly. Cleaned it out, checked again after 2 years, same amount trapped again. Amazing how...
Consider moving the AC condenser away from the radiator to clean, you may be surprised how much stuff gets trapped between them. [ATTACH]
