How to Replace the Radiator on a Volkswagen Routan?

Model: Volkswagen Routan MK 1 - Years 2009-2014
Part: Radiator

To replace the radiator on a Volkswagen Routan, open the hood to access the screws securing the plastic cover at the front of the engine compartment. Once this cover is removed, you can access the screws that secure the radiator from its top side and loosen them. After these screws are removed and the radiator is freed from additional hoses and connectors, you can completely pull out the radiator and replace it with a new one. After the replacement, reassemble all the parts that were removed earlier.
