How to replace the radiator of the Volkswagen Golf 3?

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf III, MK 3, Golf 3 - Years 1991-1997
Part: Radiator

To replace the radiator of the Volkswagen Golf 3, open the bonnet to access the screws that secure the grille to the top of the bumper. Once the grille is removed, you can access the screws that secure the radiator to its housing. After unscrewing the fixing screws, disconnect the coolant pipe at the bottom: now the radiator can be completely removed from its housing, replacing it with a new one and reinstalling all previously removed components.
