What tools are required for this job
Is this process the same for a 2018 passat? Or should i be expecting somethings extra?
4:50. You should make a short dedicated only to this little mf’er connector.
Thank you so much for this video.
This video was a lifesaver. The instructions are clear, well spoken and easy to understand. I’ve watched many YouTube videos on various auto repairs and many are very difficult to listen to and to understand and the camera work gives you motion sickness. This is not the case here. The camera work is outstanding and the speech is clear and easy to understand. This is an excellent video.
There were some differences between my car and the car used in this video. My car has the 2.5 5-cylinder engine. With this engine, the fan assembly and the radiator come out the bottom of the car rather than the top as shown in this video. I found this out quite by accident when I was trying to figure out how to get the fan assembly up and out the top. Just when I had decided that I needed to remove the upper core support, the fan assembly slipped out of my hands and dropped right to the floor. Hmmm. Okay. So I got that out of the way and then lowered the radiator out the same way. The radiator was a little trickier because I had to work it between the lower core support and the A/C line. They both went back in much easier than they came out.
This video really made this job much easier! Thank you!
some aftermarket ones are less then 1/4" too thin, not allowing the front and upper plastic trim pieces go back on
For the other DIYers, do not put the body work back together in case you have a leak. It's annoying that to take that off again to fix something
If I don’t have the vacuum tool, what’s the process for making sure to get all the air out? Fill it, run it for a moment, then top it off and repeat ?
Hi, my golf mk6 coolant radiator is minor leaking, thank you for your video. My question, if I only need to replace the radiator, must I take off many front parts? like headlight? front steel bumper core etc. it looks like need to take off most of front parts, in order to just take out the radiator? is it possible that just take out radiator from back (between fan and engine gap)? Thank you.
Is the lower radiator hose on the driver side?
