The video shows how to replace the radiator fluid in a 2004 turbo diesel Ford Transit. This is a very simple task that can be done independently and takes little time.

Perform this operation with the engine cold. At the bottom right of the radiator, there is a drain valve that must be pulled to let the old fluid flow into a suitable container.

Allow a bit of clean water to drain and then refit the drain valve. Add the new fluid to the reservoir and start the engine to observe the fluid level in the reservoir.
