Thanks! And good job! I’ve done this replacement twice now on my 2005 Sienna. This is by far the BEST video and instructions I’ve found. Concise and to the point. Some people are taking way too many things off the latch and horn assembly. And taking the air filter housing off and the battery out. Also, black zip ties are your friend when aftermarket brackets and hardware are not working. When I put the 2nd radiator in, the zip ties I used on the 1st radiator replacement were still holding strong.
You're welcome.
Really helpful video, thank you very much. One word of advice I took the lower radiator hose off at the thermostat housing and the housing broke it was very brittle plastic. To remove and replace the thermostat housing it was best to take the two bolts from the starter and loosen the starter some to get room to get that housing out.
I just realized that's the wrong coolant.
Great vid btw! Thanks for making it.
No, It's global coolant. All global coolant is borate, and silicate free. I put it in everything.
Love the humor, have fun while working!
Your commentary on this was great and very instructional and to the point thanks for all your hard work gotta tackle this next week or so
Great video, thanks! After watching 'm feeling ready to tackle our family's minivan that was just damaged in a crash. You have a great sense of when detail is needed, and when you can fast forward. The video length is just right, in my humble opinion.
Little clips are a pain in the a**. Thank you for sharing.
Love the attitude in this man! :) thank bro made my day!
No need to remove bumper cover & bottom panel
Thanks, your shit is more real world than the other similar videos. As I do this for a living also, I can identify with everything. I've had to make "special" bushing for all kinds of other cars. Chinesium junk. It's either that or spend 4 times the money, so...
Thanks for the video
Ugh... who thought making radiator removal and replacement like this was a good idea...
Great video. Thanks!
2:02 "Unplug HORNY wires" LoL
Love it I'm going to try to replace my radiator now thank you!!!!😀
Thank you for the wonderful video
Well done sir!
Dylan loves his South China imported radiators! AND SO DO YOU!
I would never buy one that cracks every 2-5 years. I’ll never understand why people do that. You had a great radiator from the factory that lasted 10+ years and you’re gonna replace it with something that will crack in just a few years? Why? You’re not getting a “deal” if you have to replace the damn thing over and over. I’ll never understand it.
Thank you! Went well!!!
Can I change those round rubber support bushing on top of the radiator without removing bumper and all of that?
I don't know.
Okay, I'm scared to do it now. Way too much removal stuff for me.
The radiator you pulled was plastic and aluminum then you put all aluminum?
That's what I got, so I stuck it in there.
Did u have to disconnect the battery?
Okay
I mean,does the battery need to be disconnected? I'm doing this job soon and I worry about having problems because of disconnecting the battery. I'd rather leave it hooked up
Does this engine require the Asian Zerex coolant ?
I'm a non believer in specialized coolants, and put global universal coolant in everything. This
concentrate contains no phosphates, borates, nitrates or silicates, and is good for all makes, and models.
@@RustBeltAuto Thank you !
Wrong way to remove bumper cover, broke the retaining body clip. No need to remove the fan assembly. For an aged van like this, most screws are heavily rusted, did not show how to remove them.
Yes. Someone already mentioned that. This bumper had been taken off before, and did not know about what was not there.
The replacement radiator looks custom made.
Custom China.
@@RustBeltAuto Oops, guess I commented too soon. I see that now.
Missing many steps
Open for interpretation.
Why Chinese radiator?
I couldn't find an American to make one.
Dillon! You son of a bitch. Choppa!
Green? Yikes.
It's global coolant. Don't be fooled by the color.
Looks like you broke the bumper retainer when you yank the bumper off. There are three tabs there and depressing them with a flat screw driver release the bumper at that point. From the front these tabs are about 1.5 inches 5 5/8 in and 10.5 inches. Those retainers can be had from ebay for less than $20 both sides. FYI
I don't know. This bumper has been off and hit many snow banks and stuff before?
@@RustBeltAuto Yeah snow banks would definitely do that. Good thing though is that the bumpers have so many securing points that I don't think they would fall off even if the retainers were not there. One might see a little more of a gap I suppose
I’ll never understand why people go out and buy the cheapest Chinese piece of crap radiator they can find… that will crack within 5 years- when the original radiator lasted them 10..15..20 years.. I’ll never understand it. Replace it with OEM in the first place it’ll likely outlast the rest of the vehicle. Or.. pay every 2-5 years to replace that Chinese crap. You’re not really getting a deal if you have to replace something cheap over and over and over.
It depends. This one probably was on its 4th radiator. O.E is about 400$. These are about 100.
