This is super important to keep an eye on especially in the rust belt!! Your transmission cooler is in the radiator and if that fails, you could get radiator fluid in you transmission and ruin the tranny/ destroy your van prematurely. Just did this job three weeks ago, radiator cost $175 OE, Denso from NAPA
09 Odyssey. I was able to remove/replace the radiator without removing the bumper. I did release the clips that hold the top of the grill and then flexed the grill and bumper a little. It came out pretty easy. Also, I didn’t have clamps for the transmission hoses so I used foam earplugs with the lanyard style, so I could removed easily. Worked perfectly! Thanks for the great video!
I work at a part store for 10 years and I would not recommand this brand of radiator he used here which has a high failure rate, Denso is the brand that came with the Van there is 2 options you can do here...1. you can pick one up from the dealer or 2. You can buy a Denso aftermarket Radiator which is cheaper then the Denso you get from the dealer but its still better then the one used here. Save the money on the brand of coolent and go with a better quality part...Zerex and Peak make a very suitable coolant that meet factory specs
Here's a tip for hoses. Break the seal on the pipe, use a pick or screw driver to lift the edge of the Hose up, spray WD40 or silicon spray, Twist the hose, it will slide right off. BTW, excellent video, lot of work doing the camera
Tip for confirmation count how many bolts we take out. Yeah u follow as you go and u understand but it’ll be helpful to say “were going to remove these 3 10mm bolt here that hold in……” “these two 10mm bolt down at the bottom” or summarize how many things we take out “these two 10mm bolts on the bottom along with three hose connections” overall this is a great detailed video. I decided to post this because someone asked the same question while watching.
All RUclips videos should be categorized by rust belt /non rust belt. The difference in the two is night and day. My jobs never go as seen in these videos, much harder, sometimes you can’t even find the bolts for the rust. Lol
Yo trabaje ese mismo modelo y solo saque el canister y los 2 abanicos y la cerradura del capo y salio facil el radiador no tuve que remover el bumper pero si hay que sacar el cover plastico que va justo debajo del radiador para tener mejor visibilidad de los tornillos de los abanicos y de la linea de enfriamiento de la transmision ahi le dejo ese tips
Friend kissed a deer doing 75 on I5 and managed to cave in their radiator then decided to take the entire cooling system apart and then call me and ask me to put back together so this really helped me.
My 2008 Odyssey’s Denso radiator blew when 11 years old, 210,000 miles. No minor leaking. Sudden catastrophic burst. With sudden loss of coolant, the temperature sensor is no longer covered by the coolant, so the dashboard gauge doesn’t register overheating.
You do not have to take the front end off on a 08. I have a 08 touring and my radiator went out this morning and I didn't take the front bumper off to get it out. I just took the fans out first and it came right out
Forgot to drop in my front catalytic converter before installing front head so now i will be following most of this procedure😐 if you ever have to remove cylinder heads ALWAYS just drop the front and back CATS in place-you can hook them up later easily without all the added work i now have to do😎😎😎
On my 2009 ody I was able to get the radiator out by removing the fans from the radiator and moving them towards the engine. Be careful - in salty climates (like Boston) the bolts will rust. A couple broke off. Use some penetrant...
If youre lucky, the rubber transmission tubing will come off. Doing this on my '04 Odyessy, & they dont want to budge! So.. got new tubing & will replace them.
Ah you did it differently. I removed the fan shrouds and coolant reservoir first and then removed the radiator, shop manual actually says this. Remove the A/C condenser brackets to allow the A/C condenser to give you some room to wiggle the radiator out. Yes damn bumper has to be removed lol
Yeah, I did notice there were 2 ways of going about this, and I thought just taking the whole thing out was easier for me. Whichever way, the end result is the same.
Love all ur videos. I like how u explain everything. Just wondering if you've ever replaced ur alternator. I did mine the other day and pushed the power steering pump aside out of the way and when i put everything back my power steering pump started to make noise. It never did before. Just wondering if in deed its bad or maybe has air inside?
Wasn't the cap, I got the same car and apparently it's a common issue. The plastic part literally separates from the aluminum of the radiator. Had to do the same thing when mine was at about 90k miles.
+badranger2004 There is no reason to raise the back up when replacing the radiator. This is not a coolant flush service we are doing. For this job, replace the radiator, refill the system, and bleed the system. You need that front end as high as possible to bleed that air or you will have a heck of a time bleeding all the air out which can cause all kinds of problem.
dial2fast, as a service technician at a dealership, it is always recommended to flush the cooling system when replacing a major component like the radiator or water pump, or even the heater core or cores, to prevent contaminants from the old part from damaging the new or if someone has used a stop leak product
The requirement is a drain and refill every 30,000 miles. This doesn’t drain the torque converter. Experienced owners drain and refill every 15,000 miles with the current spec Honda fluid. This partial change avoids a sudden change in the total fluid, which can cause trouble.

Did you. have to lift the car?
@@kmerriweather1 Nope!

This is a great video. It explains step by step. & others... haven't need to replace out but good things to know..
by far the best video i seen for this job!!! I am well informed and prepared. thank you!
Your videos are awesome sir! One heck of a clean mechanic🤣
Very complete & step by step. Quite helpful.

Excellent video thank you I will be replacing my radiator this week
Nice video, I hope I don’t need it. Just over 100k miles on a 09’. I did replace an alternator recently, could’ve used your videos on that. 😊

So I don't need to raise my car?
Please respond asap!
I'm stuck in los angeles!
@@eliaschase7196 no you shouldn't I didn't have to
@@eliaschase7196 no you shouldn't have to raise your car
@TJsVette they're charging me 250 for labor, is that a reasonable price? I have to buy the radiator and the anti freeze.
And thank you for responding!
@Elias Chase it takes a few hours to do the job so yes 250 is a decent price. I believe it took me a total of 3 hours to do it.

Excelente video, muy bien explicado . Gracias por la aportación
Would 2 gallons be enough with thermostat as well?
Thank you for telling me the bolt size. It saves time not having to guess
No u
Mine (2006) has another small connector near the bottom on the passenger side

Sorry, I have not had to replace mine yet.
GREAT VIDEO 😀😀😀
Did you pressure test the radiator to find the actual leak? Thinking you may have had a bad radiator cap
Wasn't the cap, I got the same car and apparently it's a common issue. The plastic part literally separates from the aluminum of the radiator. Had to do the same thing when mine was at about 90k miles.
I am interesting your van repair mean you are my friend
Can you put sealant in the radiator
Any type of fix a leak product is only temporary. You should get it replaced.
Thank you
You really should've had the rear of the van up on jack stands also, so the vehicle would be level so you'd get more of the coolant out

Don't know if you've done it already but your transmission fluid looked awfully dark. You should drain it and refill.
Yes it was due for service. I got it done shortly after this video. Thanks
