How do you disassemble the engine coolant radiator in the Audi A4 B8?

Model: Audi A4 B8 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Radiator

The reasons that require the disassembly of the radiator mentioned above are usually the accumulation of dirt and consequent blockage of the pipes, as well as the radiator itself, or leaks due to the appearance of holes or lesions. For convenience, it is better to make space by removing the bumper, headlights, and front grille, then disconnect the inlet and outlet pipes of the liquid, empty it, remove the thermostat, also called the bulb, and finally unscrew the locking pins, two upper and two lower. Now we follow the reverse procedure and install the new radiator.
