Part: Heater core

To replace the heater radiator on a Volkswagen Passat, loosen the screws securing the side panel of the passenger footwell. Once this panel is removed, you will have access to the underlying components: specifically, you need to loosen the bolts securing the pipes to the radiator. Next, from the rear of the engine bay, disconnect the additional pipes connected to the radiator. The radiator can then be extracted from its housing and replaced with a new spare part.
