Dismantle the Radiator from the Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Radiator

Dismantling the radiator from the Ford Fiesta? Here’s how to remove the damaged part. Open the front bonnet, detach the soundproofing panel from the engine, then use a suitable socket spanner to remove the plates that secure the radiator at the top. Lift the car on a column lift and loosen the hose clip on the water pipe. Disconnect the various hoses from the cooling system using pliers. Once free from screws and pipes, you can extract the fan assembly and then the radiator from the engine bay. Refit the cooling fans, clamps, bolts, and various pipes. Top up the coolant in the appropriate reservoir.
