How to Replace Radiator: 2007-2011 Toyota Camry

How to Replace Radiator: 2007-2011 Toyota Camry

Today, I’m installing a radiator in my $500 2009 Toyota Camry, as it was leaking transmission fluid from the fitting on the bottom of the old radiator. As you’ll see, this is an easy job that can be done in a driveway with basic tools – no need to pay a shop big bucks to do something this simple. Post any questions/comments below… I read them all. Thanks for watching!

Do u need to bleed the two transmission lines after hooking up

Thanks for the video! Do you think the process would be close to the same for the 6 cylinder SE model? I am thinking it should be close, but there may be a little less room to work in there?

Great voice and best quality video.

Do 2007 Toyota Camry have 2 radiators? My mechanic is saying they do cuz is the one "on the inside" & he would have to remove all the inside stuff (where the stereo & all that is at) & replace it.

Benjamin Smith says:

You didn't bleed the cooling system. Air in the cooling system causes hotspots in the engine block and can blow a headgasket.

Great video. Just replaced the radiator on my 09 Camry. A mechanic friend told me to do it this same way but I wanted to make sure I was familiar with the process before attempting. Your video was perfect.

I want to thank you for sharing your repair with us. I own 2009 Camry and bought the same radiator for like 70 bucks from Amazon while others wanted 500$ idkw???? But Toyota is like Lego easy to replace parts as oppose to German cars. I plan to make it last till the wheels fall off and some

I watched a different video that instructed the viewer to remove the front bumper to make this repair. Thanks to your video I was able to remove and replace the radiator in record time, with less frustration, and no extra cash. Thank you so much for posting this. Your video made life a hell of a lot easier!
