To remove the heating radiator in a Volkswagen Golf, you need to completely dismantle the lower part of the dashboard next to the pedal area: once this panel is removed, you can locate the heating radiator at the bottom of the dashboard. By loosening its fastening screws and disconnecting the fluid passage pipes, you can remove the old radiator and insert the new one. The new radiator must be properly secured and connected, ensuring everything is functioning correctly.
