To replace the radiator on the Volkswagen Golf 2, first open the bonnet and then unscrew the cap of the coolant reservoir. Next, disconnect the coolant hose by removing the securing screws and allowing the coolant to drain.

After removing the hose, disconnect the connector of the cooling fan: at this point, you can extract the radiator from its housing after loosening the securing bolts. Once the new radiator is inserted, reconnect and secure it again.
