InterCooler
 
How can I tell if Intercooler is leaking?

I had to replace the radiator. Car runs great, turbo seems to run fine. I was worried if had small leak causing a long term problem.

Thanks

would have to put piping on either side and pressurize it and see if the pressure drops and if so how fast. if you lose pressure youve got a leak

intercooler
 
Can you tell when driving car. I have already put it back together?

It's an air to air heat exchanger. Unless it was damaged in an accident or severely over-pressured they shouldn't give much trouble. Why do you think it may be leaking?

I hit some wood in the road. It broke the bottom air spoiler, fog light and cracked the radiator. The plastic on on side. Intercooler does not look damaged. Just want to be safe.

I would think if you drive the car hard that you would notice the turbo not working?
