Does anyone know how easy it is to change the rad pipes top and bottom?

 

can it be done without having to move anything else?

 

cheers all.

Jack the car up, drain the rad, undo the bottom pipe and drain remnants of coolant. You may need to remove the one turbo hose on drivers side. Other than that quite straight forward.

cheers mate!!!! when ive got the rad disconnected should i flush through the block with a hose??????

I don't think that is advisable, see what others suggest.

Just remember to bleed the system when your finished :-))

cheerz guys!!

if your going to do this why not do a little more and remove the rad so you can get all the leafs from inbetween the rad and air con rad. will help with the cooling. found load of dead stuff in there including half a bird. cant see flushing the block would hurt, but wait for more deffinate info on that one
