I've read in a few places that leaves sucked in through the front spoiler can bung up and damage the radiators that sit behind it. I've seen suggestions of taking the bumper off and fitting mesh to prevent this. I'm not handy with spanners so would need to get this done by an Indy.
In the meantime, I was out for a drive today. It was windy with leaves blowing everywhere and I noticed that the grills of most cars coming towards me were covered in them. It got me wondering what my car was sucking in.
Anyway, when I got home I got our cordless Dyson out with a long bendy nozzle and put it into the vents on the front spoiler - out came a bunch of leaves.
Until I get a chance to have mesh fitted is it a good idea to regularly vacuum the leaves & crud out?
