Default How to clean the area?

Hi Guys,

If you take the radiator cover off, there are two radiators on the E60. The big one on which the plastic fan hangs and small one in front of it. The area between these two radiators is very narrow and mine is filled with leaves and debri. It is that narrow that a vaccum pipe won't fit into it. Is there a way to clean that area from under as it seems to have a strong black plastic plate under it.

Thanks.

Do you have access to compressed air? Maybe give this a try, just keep the air tip moving since the fins on the condenser and radiator can move easily. I would personally would start at or around 75 psi
