To replace the heater radiator in the Kia Sorento, you must completely dismantle the dashboard, as the heater radiator is located inside it: start by removing the covers that surround the steering column. Next, remove the steering wheel itself, first taking out the airbag; then you can proceed to remove the central panel and all the side trims.

The radiator can be removed by disconnecting the pipes and connectors attached to it; after the new part is inserted, you can refit all the components that were removed.
