The inlet and outlet both measure 2.16 outside diameter, supporting a direct replacement setup for the listed Mini Cooper Countryman and Mini Cooper Paceman applications. This part cross-references BMW 17517632764 for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Reduced charge-air cooling efficiency from a damaged or restricted intercooler
• Boost pressure loss caused by cracked or leaking intercooler components
• Heat-soak concerns during repeated acceleration or stop-and-go driving
• Physical damage from road debris or front-end impact
• Fitment problems when replacing a worn factory intercooler on Mini Cooper Countryman or Mini Cooper Paceman models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front-position fitment and compare inlet and outlet diameters before installation. Inspect adjoining charge pipes, clamps, and seals for wear or contamination, and confirm the mounting points align with the vehicle before final assembly. For 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Countryman and 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Paceman applications, confirm the original part number and routing match the vehicle configuration.
