2000 S70 GLT SE Radiator Replacement
 
It's time for my radiator to be replaced as it has a crack and is leaking. I'd rather replace than try to JB Weld it or some type of temp fix.

Question is: Since I will be replacing radiator, what else should I replace at same time? I plan on replacing radiator, hoses, thermostat. Have I overlooked anything that I should be replacing at same time as radiator?

Where have you guys found the best deals on Volvo radiators?

Also, what is the degree of difficulty in replacing a Volvo radiator? Ive only ever worked on American cars before! Any special, oddball tools required for the job?

Thanks!

I would check with FCP. Also compare with IPD. There are a couple of oil / transmission lines that connect to it. You may want to have a few rubber corks handy.
