Do you have to remove the fan in order to remove the radiator with lower shroud attached? Does not seem logical, but maybe? 
What is he missing?
We have the "owner's Bible" for the car, but they want you to take it to the dealership, of course. My searches through the forums have not been successful either.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!

. . day! Never saw a two piece fan shroud on a M119?? Mine is like Russell's pic in post#6; the shroud, one piece #5 and the fan ring, #6.
To get it out, you need to take the ring (#6) and then remove the VFC/fan assy. But FIRST, you need to loosen the facade as shown in MENU#20 in the picture in the "Removing the VFC" section. Once it's loose, the fan shroud pulls up and out. But mine is one piece. Not sure how a two piece shroud would work???
