Just finished replacing intercooler on 163 Auto. I think there are a couple of ways to do this. I didn't touch the Air con pipes I removed the cross bar (slam bar) and didn't disconnect the air bag sensors. I don't think there would be any implications if I did as they are simply plug in clips with no warning notes etc. I was then able to jiggle the I/C unit clear.
Must say after replacement with OE part of ebay and also an MTE remap the car is allot smoother, powerful and quieter.
