I did my radiator replace from your video. Great step by step!!! Only thing, my radiator had to screws at the bottom. I had to jack mine up and drop the cover. It was so easy to get to the bottom hoses and screws on mine. I had to cap of the fluid line to transmission. I was quoted 1400.00 from the shop and told the front end had to come off. I save myself 1086.88 with the part and coolant. Front end didn't have to come off!!!
Nice video you updated! Thank you. A quick question. How much gallons did a new radiator take? I just replaced a new radiator, but it only took one gallon & it’s full now. The old drain coolant was about 1.5 gallon. Any advise?
I just change my RHD Lexus Ls460's spark plug, thx for the sharing! And I am gonna change the radiator as well! Really nice video and let me save over 2000 Canadian Dollar!
@@showrunner2183 yea it was kind of simple,then I did the tune up was doing good until I broke a valve cover bolt then it was so cold I took it to the shop
why is this video not in your LS460 playlist? thank you for the video. I am looking for a video to change out the PCV valve and front bumper removal. I want to remove front bumper to change out the daylight driving light.
What are those pieces you screwed on the new radiator? I have a leak coming from them & the shop told me id beed a new radiator they don’t believe its sold separately? Great video!
Hi, thanks for asking. the car wasn't doing anything different, yet. I noticed the old radiator has a broken water connector, which can be seen from minute 3:28 compared to the new radiator (from minute 3:58).
But you didn't show how you removed the two lower screws connecting both radiators. Without unscrewing these screws, you will not be able to remove the radiator separately. I think you have to remove the bumper to get to these screws. Correct?
What year is this car, I got a 09 Ls460 and my radiator is cracked and I’m trying to get it replaced. Mines look similar to this and I was wondering how hard is it to change out?
All though you tried to make a video for a radiator replacement, you lacked showing the two hidden bolts that hold the radiator and condenser together, you missed the bolt at the bottom by the plastic plate that holds the hood latch, you missed the fact that the fan has to come out first or you have to remover upper radiator hose to take it out together(fan & Radiator). Instead of music you should talk and explain will help a diyer. I took this job on based on the fact of this video. You missed crucial steps.

Glad it helps. Thank you for sharing!
Those screws are on the condenser or the radiator? I can’t find them
You hv NOT evacuated air bubbles at the end, which is very important step.
did you switch coolants? why are you not using red/pink?
Another Nice Video the 👍 absolutely not distracting talking and banner straight to the point!
thanks for the video, i think it will help me. mine is a 2008 and i'll be starting my radiator replacement in a few hours. wish me luck.

Excellent video👍
No need to remove the bottom bolts holding the AC condenser?
In the video you only removed the top bolts👍

Very soothing repair video thank you
Perfect. Thanks for posting
Thank you, so much.
Love the music
Love videos like this
There are 2 10mm bolts on the bottom of the ac condenser , to seperate the radiator ..the bottom right side is a pain in the ass to get to 🙄
do you still have this lexus? or did you sell it? how many miles did it have? thanks.
Hi, thank you for asking. I still have it. It has a little over 215,000 miles and runs very smoothly! I am looking to buy another one.
why did you replace the radiator ? what was the car doing ?
Hi, thanks for asking. the car wasn't doing anything different, yet. I noticed the old radiator has a broken water connector, which can be seen from minute 3:28 compared to the new radiator (from minute 3:58).
Where's the thermostat in all of this?
At the front right of the engine behind the coolant reservoir, the large lower coolant pipe from the bottom of the radiator leads right to it.
But you didn't show how you removed the two lower screws connecting both radiators. Without unscrewing these screws, you will not be able to remove the radiator separately. I think you have to remove the bumper to get to these screws. Correct?
