Let's look at replacing the radiator on a Volvo V70. Open the bonnet, detach the engine soundproofing panel; remove the plates that secure the radiator at the top, then lift the car on a column lift and detach the hose clamp of the water hose. Disconnect the various hoses of the cooling system with pliers.

Extract the fan assembly and then the radiator from the engine bay. Prepare to install the new part in the engine bay: fit the cooling fans, connectors, pins, and various pipes. Refit the radiator mounting brackets with the associated plates.

Tighten the plastics and front grille securely with a socket wrench.
