The Forge Motorsport intercooler variant compatible with your model can be ascertained by viewing the stock intercooler through the front grille and counting the number of horizontal cooling tubes. If your model has seven cooling tubes the FMINT8 is a match for your model, and this intercooler (FMINTMF56) if your model has eleven cooling tubes.
Fitment of the core is involved but straightforward using the instructions that we provide, together with a full fitting kit. No cutting is required, this core simply replaces the original.

Warranty
10 Year Warranty Information
The majority of Forge Motorsport products come with a limited 10 Year Warranty (brakes pads excluded). All warranty claims must be accompanied by the original proof of purchase to enable us to help you. Failure to supply this proof will result in your claim or enquiry being denied.
For further information, please call our customer service team on +49(0)3222/1097-308 or email info@forgemotorsport.eu.
Do not use aggressive (acidic) car cleaning products, particularly traffic film remover solutions or shampoos to clean your intercooler, radiator, or oil cooler. The use of these products can damage Forge Motorsport cooling systems and invalidate your warranty. These are often found at car washes. A light, warm, soapy solution (free of harsh acidic cleaning compounds) should be used to clean you cooler and thoroughly rinsed away. We recommend that you should inspect your product on a regular basis for bent and/or crushed fins. Any bent fins should be carefully straightened to allow ambient air to pass through the core face. At the time of installing your Forge radiator, an approved coolant must be used and added to the coolant system. Be sure you never mix coolant and always use distilled water.
This warranty does not apply to any defect in the goods arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, accident, negligence by you or any third party, use otherwise than as recommended by the supplier, failure to follow the supplier’s instructions, or any alteration or repair carried out without the supplier’s approval.

We do not list a replacement by the quoted part number you submitted with your enquiry but this does not mean either of the intercoolers we offer is not compatible and you can check for compatibility by counting the number of horizontal cooling tubes seen on your stock intercooler:
- 7 intercooler cooling tubes = compatibility with our part number FMINT8.
- 11 intercooler cooling tubes = compatibility with pour part number FMINTF56.
