Radiator removal
« on: 16 July 2009, 08:31:57 »

Is it fairly straight forward to remove and replace the radiator on a 2.5 auto?

Anyone have any instructions? Doesn't the auto box fluid run through it as a cooler as well? so guessing I'd have to change that at the same time?

any help welcome......oh yes and a radiator would be useful too!!!

Are pre and post facelift rads the same?

Straight forward job - need to remove elec connection near bottom rad passenger side - easier to do when half out.  Undo autobox cooler pipes - you wont lose much atf - safest to check g/box level when finished.
