To replace the radiator of the Subaru Forester, access the lower part of the engine bay to loosen the screws securing the cover behind the bumper. This will allow you to disconnect the hoses and cables connected to the radiator and also loosen its securing bolts.

Next, repeat the same operation from the upper part of the engine bay. When the radiator and its fan are free, you can extract them and detach the fan from the radiator by unscrewing the appropriate bolts. Therefore, you can install the fan onto the new radiator and place the components into their designated housing.
