Aerodynamics of the extended spoiler. But see if cleaning out the condensor works , helped mine , there was alot of debris in there had to make 2-3 passes with the pressured air hose.

Just start from the top and work your way to the bottom going side to side, I use a air compressor with a long air sprayer works vey good , I could see the dirt blowing out the other side of it. Or I haven't tried it but I think would work, spray it down with engine degressor and use a pressure washer to clean it out, same method as the other.

I have done this procedure many times. With compressed air and a pressure washer. The compressed air works best because with the pressure washer your making a mess with water getting all over everything. And its really just spraying dirt all over stuff. Compressed air would be quicker anyways cause you don't have to hook up the water lines to the pressure washer.

I don't have an air compressor, but I have a wet and dry vac, these vacs work as blowers too. Do you think it going to work? I understand the condenser and the radiator are together. What's the distance between both?
Tomorrow I'm going to make an 80 mile trip, so I need to do this early morning.

Sorry, but the answer is too general. What Aerodynamics do?
You're right, cleaning the condenser is the first thing to do. I'm very anxious to work on this tomorrow morning. I'll let you know right after I'm done.

Know anyone with a air compressor. Thats going to be the only true way to get everything out. You will waste your time IMO with a wet and dry vac.
X2, Thats why I suggessted maybe engine degreesor so the pressure of the cans to get in the fins , then maybe a pressure washer at one of those self service car washes to get on the junk out. I have done that before on the radiator and condsenor.

Done. I did something very quick in my friend's shop. He has compressor and recomended to get a conderser cleaner at the A/C shop, when it's applied it looks like white foam.The condenser wasn't too dirty, but still has tiny rocks very clogged that the pressured air didn't get out. I did not repeat the procedure, because I needed to rush back to home to take care of my kid. Maybe I'll try something else next weekend. But I tested the car, I left it on for 10 minutes, after that I drove 10 minutes to home and left it on again for about 15 to 20 minutes. I did something like that before and the gauge started raising over 210. The temp gauge didn't go over 210 this time, and the indicator was little behind 210 too, it looks that the problem is solved. I didn't notice any significant difference in the A/C performance. Today I didn't make it for my 80 mile trip, I'll do it tomorrow and I'll see how the car behaves on the expressway and right after on idle. I'll let you know.
