Any tips to give me beforeI replace mine? What is with the "refridgration" metal looking lines, does that have to dowith my ac condenser? i dont wanna mess with that, or mess it up by dis-connecting it. any help please? ive done plenty of radiatorsin other euro cars but none like a volvo. Thanks in advance for any help.

 

The metal lines that go to the Radiator are tranny cooler lines. Almost all automatic cars have them.

Everything is pretty easy to do.

 

ok cool so i can just undo them and put them back to the new radiator? If so that would be awesome. Thanks alot.

 

Yes you can you will loose some ATF so just check it and top up after installing new Rad.

 

ok thanks, ill make sure i do that. i have the new radiator and putting it in when i dont have work (friday) thanks for the advice again i relaly appreciate(spelling? haha) it.

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Hey, got the new radiator in, had a little more trouble then i thought. The radiator that i got didnt have big enough holes at the top to clamp/bolt the fan on, but i just pre drilled some little holes and got the bolts to catch and go in nicely. Another problem i ran into was when i put the tranny lines back on i thought i had them tight enough, it leaked a little when i turned the car on and tightened it up a little more and everything is fine now. Thanks for the info now i have a bran new radiator !

 

Glad you got it all going good.
Sometimes with the aftermarket ones you need to tweek some stuff.
