Is the radiator due for replacement? Let’s look at removing the radiator fitted in the Opel Astra. Lift the front bonnet, and using an appropriate socket spanner, remove the plates that secure the radiator at the top. Then, lift the car on a column lift and loosen the clamp on the water hose.

Disconnect the various hoses of the cooling system using pliers. Once free from bolts and hoses, you can extract the fan assembly and then the radiator from the engine bay. Check the type and model of radiator and fit an identical one.
