Active grill shutters
I backed my 2020 M235i into the garage the other day to get a different perspective of it as I pass by it throughout the day. My eyes keep being drawn to that plastic shield behind the grill. Apparently the proper term is active grill shutter? which is designed to open/close depending on engine needs? Honestly it feels a little flimsy when I touch it. A few questions: does it open and close? what happens if it’s hot out and it fails to open? What about in snowy, icy conditions; it may not need the cool air intake around town but couldn’t it jam/burnout if it’s needed to open? What if it was removed I think the car would look better without it. Thoughts?
