Went out to preemptively replace the upper radiator hose and thermostat on my new to me 04 Aero, thinking it would be as simple as on my 01 9.5. Wrong! How the heck are you supposed to get at the drain plug? I can see it but even after removing the plastic shield there's too much stuff in the way, including some unitdentified tubing which I'd rather not mess with. And what the heck is that plastic ductwork there that starts from under the grill and seems to end under the battery tray?
Sorry for the rant, but any advice on getting at the drain plug would be much appreciated.
