Service, removal and installation of a radiator of the cooling system

Do not start performing procedures before full cooling of the engine. See also preventions at the beginning of the Section Antifreeze - general information.

Service without removal

On models with a turbo-supercharging check is made on a mouth of a filling tank.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Kill the engine, carefully wipe all subjects to check joints and connections.
2. Uncover a jellied mouth of a radiator, in case of need add in a radiator cooling liquid for rise in level of the mouth, last to the lower cut.
3. Connect the special device for check of a radiator to a jellied mouth and create in the last pressure in 157 kPa. Check assembly of a radiator and its nipple connections for existence of signs of leak of liquid. Examine also regarding development of leaks radiator hoses.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Disconnect a negative wire from the battery.

If the stereosystem established on the car is equipped with a security code before disconnecting the battery make sure that you have the correct combination for input of the audio system in action!

2. Empty the cooling system (see the Head Routine maintenance). If replacement of cooling liquid was made recently, keep it for further use (see the prevention in the Section Antifreeze - general information).
3. Disconnect the top and lower radiator hoses from the engine.
4. Uncover a belt.
5. On models without turbo-supercharging disconnect a broad tank and an overflow hose.
6. On models with a turbo-supercharging disconnect the hose going to a filling tank from a radiator.
7. Disconnect an electrical wiring from the main and auxiliary fans.

8. Disconnect arms of fastening of a radiator.

9. Having raised a radiator, slightly shift it to the left.
10. Disconnect the bringing and taking away lines of cooling of ATF. Merge working liquid in the prepared capacity.
11. Lift a radiator up and take it from a motive compartment of the car.

Installation

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Put on rubber pillows of support fingers in the lower part of radiator assembly.
2. Fill pillows in nests on the forward panel and establish a radiator.
3. Establish arms of fastening of a radiator. Screw and strongly tighten fixing bolts.
4. Connect an electrical wiring to the main and auxiliary radiators.
5. Connect top and lower radiator hoses.
6. Install a broad tank and an overflow hose.
7. Establish a belt.
8. Connect a negative wire to the battery.
9. Fill in cooling liquid in system.

On models with a turbo-supercharging cooling liquid is filled in in a filling tank.

10. Achieve a raising of level of cooling liquid to the top mark in a wall of a broad tank.
11. Establish a cover of a jellied mouth of a radiator and a stopper for production of air.
12. Warm up the engine up to the normal working temperature, having allowed it to work within 5 minutes at turns from 2000 to 3000 in a minute.
13. Kill the engine and wait until temperature of cooling liquid decreases to safe value.
14. Remove a stopper and a cover of a jellied mouth of a radiator.
15. If liquid level in a radiator decreased, add it to the lower cut of a mouth.
16. Check liquid level in a broad tank, in case of need make the corresponding adjustment.
17. Establish a stopper and a cover of a jellied mouth.
