Caution: Due to the elevated engine temperatures created while performing this procedure it is imperative to keep the vehicle in an open environment, with the liftgate open, away from any walls or buildings. In addition, for convertible applications you must ensure the following:

  • Folding top stowage compartment lid is open
  • Folding top is in the closed position
  • Rear compartment lid is open
  • Rear window panel is removed

Performing these actions will ensure proper airflow across components in the engine compartment.
