The intercooler should be a bolt on fit so should be straight forward a swap. Make sure you get the hoses on fully before you do up the clips and keep the cooler pipes and internal hoses free from oil before refitting.

Hi Pete Would like to find out myself for when my turn comes to upgrade. I have A/C and had a look the other day but it looked like you will have to remove A/C radiator??? And how do you remove the crossmember(or whatever you call it) that covers the radiator and intercooler? Looks like there are bolts in the fenders behind the headlights that needs removing? Please shed some light for me! |

I fitted Alive intercooler with silicone hoses myself on Puma 2010my with a/c.
In general you have to follow workshop procedure, but not exactly 
Sequence was: 1. radiator grille 2. fan housing (only upper part) 3. hood latch panel - you have to remove 2 studs - № 18 on picture - it wasn't very easy... I used some type of claws (vise or clamps?) then I changed that studs on M8 bolts 4. old intercooler with hoses before I fitted new intercooler I had to do 2 things : 1. lessen 2 bolts on A/C radiator and slightly push A/C radiator forward 2. remove plastic outgrowth on left binding (?) of the main radiator. That plastic outgrowth didn't let the new intercooler to fit vertically Also, it was more convenient to fit hoses after new intercooler bolted in place. Keep in mind that it is only my experience and all Defs are hand made so yours may be slightly different

remove the studs "18"!!!
When you will re-install use normal (SS) screws, so in the future will be more easy for (eventually) maintenance Discovery 5 td6 HSE Stornoway Gray Outback Engineering Limited Edition

Also right hand intercooler support, looking the front of the car
Click image to enlarge and, probably it is necessary to cut (I cutted it with dremmel type tool) 2 not used plastic support (on the water radiator) Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated  Discovery 5 td6 HSE Stornoway Gray Outback Engineering Limited Edition
