This video was very helpful! I like how detailed you are in explaining the whole step by step process. AWESOME!!!!!
Thank you for this! I have a 1998 Volvo s70 and I need to replace the radiator and this video gave me the confidence and know how to do that and save a good $400! We had some rough spots, some rust on bolts and there were slight differences between the 850 and s70, not as much room in mine and we had to take it out from the bottom. But, we did it! After all was hooked up we start it and pop! The top oil cooler hose undid it self, it did not come off but out. Interestingly enough when I had a mechanic look at it he said that was leaking and needed to be replaced and due to where it is and we need to take the radiator out to do it it will be more money, etc. But, we plugged it back in and ensured that it was secure and no leak! I also saw you do not need to remove the radiator to do this. Again, thank you!
In my 97 Volvo 850 non-turbo found it difficult to remove the radiator from the top as shown in the video. Found it easier to drop the radiator and remove from below as long as car was on stands or on ramps.
In LA. Independent quoted $1100 for radiator replacement and thermostat and ETC. After watching this I feel like I could have easily done the job and saved a bunch.
Like others who have commented from over the years. Your video is excellent. I have UK 98 V70R and was loosing coolant from the radiator. Never done any radiator on a car before and after watching your tutorial a few times. I bit the bullet and replaced the radiator. It was relatively easy and on the street. No jack either. pieces of wood was used to support I would recommend oiling the radiator to car mounts before removal. These are the ones you have to undo from underneath but the thread is, if look before you leap, visible on one side not so on the other. Made sure zip ties were used as well on the PS and oil connectors. All is now good. You cant beat old Volvo's.
I followed your instructions and successfully changed my radiator today. You made it really easy to understand... thanks!
You're welcome! We're happy to hear the video helped and the job went smooth for you.
Brilliant guide, did this in just under 4 hours following this. I do like a coffee break though. 😂
Thanks guys, got my radiator yesterday. Now that was fast!! Going through the video before I start the repair tomorrow. Thanks for the video and have a wonderful holiday!!
I've seen several of these videos. Ben is so smooth. Everything Ben touches is gold! Excellent mechanic Ben is.
Glad you like the videos Debbie!
YES!! Thanks so much! I could have easily reversed engineers this job but watching this video made the job a lot quicker. Thanks for being out there.
Ben is the very best Narrator and teacher of FCP.
The radiator mounting bolts have locknuts on my 1998 V70 T5. Good instructional video!
I've used these videos for my brakes, struts, and now radiator.... you guys are the best, thanks for the help.
Thanks B-Mac, just used this method today rather than just dropping the whole sandwich out the bottom like I thought I was going to need to .. worked out good ..
This is a excellent video. Very well done! Great workmanship on the car and the video. :)
Love this it helped so much clear-cut straightforward
thanks
Very good service.
He comprado algunos repuestos para reparar mi Volvo V70 y he ahorrado mucho tiempo y dinero.
La página es excelente pero se puede seguir mejorando.
Fantastic done!
Great job..
Well done👍👏 without dragging or digressing!
I love you so much, you are my savior bro. So simple, so elegant. Many thanks!!!
You caught us! Maybe at some point in the future, but we have not filmed it yet.
Thanks alot, this was very helpful. getting the radiator out is a little challenging, had to unscrew small exhaust fan on the right hand side of the radiator..
The oil and transmission cooling tubes are in the end tanks of the radiator, in a bath of coolant. One way to contaminate oil and coolant would be if there was an internal rupture that allowed the two to mix. There are others but let me know if I have answered your question!
Fantastic video 👏👍
Thanks, Joe!
Will get this done this weekend.
Thank you for this video it give all the detail I need it. Thank you again🙏
You are very welcome Gustavo!
Great video thank you. I was wondering if you have a list of the tools you used for this video ?
I know it was a year ago but Robert DIY has the best Volvo repair vids ua-cam.com/video/WfAfhwrSuqQ/v-deo.html
@@danielebrparish4271 I use Robert a lot.
Bravo! Excellent video!
Thank you, William! Glad you like the video!
Thats perfect thank you, I guess i will be using this video in the near future. Thanks again
Hi George, you can get a glimpse of the intercooler at 7:15.
I didn't see him swap the grommets that are in the radiator's body mount holes(with the 12mm bolts). Is the new radiator suppose to come with new grommets installed? My order didn't.
solid, solid, solid video! Thanks so much
I had the same experience on a 1994 non-turbo. I also ended up going out and in though the bottom rather than top. Didn't have to jack or lift the car to do this.
Top vid .
I managed to change my PCB kit with your help. Appreciated!
Replacing radiator next. Any chance you have a part number for the retainer clips for the transmission hoses? Thanks
Hi Matt, if you contact our team with your model info, they can provide you with said part numbers and more! Service@fcpeuro.com
That was awesome video👍
Thanks, Arnold! Glad you like the video!

A truly inspiring video. Thank you!
Respect man !!!
Very helpful. Thx
No problem!
Thanks so much for the helpful video!! I just replaced by 02 v70 xc radiator with your help! When refilling the Transmission fluid (from the stuff that is lost when removing the radiator) , is there a certain fluid type you would recommend especially if I'm not sure what exact fluid is in the car?
You're welcome, Laird! Glad we can help! Here is the transmission fluid you want to use: www.fcpeuro.com/products/aisin-oem-auto-trans-fluid-aisin-atf-0t4
Such skill with that ratchet
I think it's way easier to pull out all three of them and replace one, two or more of those components.
Put this trias together on a workbench or table and reinstall the whole shebang . Just my two cents..
Hans
you guys are awesome!
Great video, i'm trying to fix a leak in my Volvo s60 radiator, but where is the radiator cap ? lol
Botip I asked the same question and learned that my volvo 850 doesn't have a cap, the way the coolant system is assembled is much different.
Ben,
Being that this is a turbo, it would've been helpful to point out which one is the radiator, vs the intercooler. Generally, from the front of the vehicle, only the a/c condenser is visible. Likewise, from the inside, behind the fan & shroud, only the radiator is visible. However, the actual intercooler is hidden, or sandwiched in between the two components. Usually, there's some confusion as to which component cools which fluid, & its routing path to & from the engine.
What a complicated repair!!
Is it necessary to remove the splash shield to access the drain petcock and just drain the coolant?
Hi Ben, Thanks for another informative video. I just replaced my radiator on my 96' 850GLT and discovered that my tranny fluid is much higher now. I know the level was correct prior to the radiator swap. I know that the tranny does send some fluid through the radiator to cool it but why would it be higher? Any ideas?
shiny intercooler, metal endcaps ftw! (video for that install?) i cant imagine it being a step or 2 more than this one, but i dunno if there was any special things done to make it fit
Hello, after you remove the oil cooling lines off the radiator do you need to top the fluid up?
+1 I am wondering too. did you learn
I need help identifying the skinny plastic hose which goes around the cooling fan with the relay wires. Mine is severed and I don't know the name of the part.
FCP Euro should list the tools they used in this video...
Hello, that's something we want to include in our future videos. I'll see if I can get you a list of tools that were used during this video.
Funny that I work at Volvo and am using this video because the instructions apparently don’t exist on Vida…
Is this basically the same process for a 94’ 850 base model?
Excellant
Hola una pregunta, voy a cambiarle de motor a mi Volvo 850 t5 por un motor que no tiene turbo intercooler, ¿puedo sacarle el intercooler sin perjudicar el montaje del radiador?
That oil cooler part is only for automatic transmission right? I think for my NA manual V70 this is an even easier job?
Hi Ben, approximately how long does this repair take? For an experienced mechanic, and your average Joe
Also, is it possible to do without a jack?
TheAfterbanger This one took about 3 hours to film.
could oil somehow get into the cooling system in the radiator if it has a fault where the oil cooler lines and the coolant lines are close?
Just ordered the o-rings and clamps for the transmission and the oil lines from FCP and wanted to know if it's the same procedure removing the radiator for my 1998 automatic S70 T5? Thanks for a great video.
The repair is essentially the same. There may be some boost hoses routed a bit differently but basically the same basic procedure. Hope that helps.
my question is the same as purple 89 (1 year ago) did not see a response:
I have a Volvo 850 1994 Non turbo will this be exactly the same way to change it ?
MUCH APPRECIATED-love the detail.
Sure thing, we responded: I believe it's identical, you should be fine using this guide. But don't hesitate to give us a ring if you have any questions: 1-877-634-0063. Make sure you sort the comments "newest first" to see all of our responses, sometimes youtube will mix them up so they don't appear in order. Hope that helps.
Pardon my coming late to the party but: the '98 S70 I have is not a turbo. Should I be looking for a different video?
excellent video as always. what has ben used to lubricate the cooling lines for transmision and turbo ?
I guess engine oil.
Como consigo un radiadores en Quito me puede ayudar gracias
Thanks for the quick reply, so is that back and forth play in the intercooler normal then? I didn't notice it when I was pulling the old radiator out.
Imma average Zo tryna learn, so since the radiator doesn't have a cap does this make for a more efficient way for coolant to move thur the system? Also do other radiator system have transmission and oil lines running thur them?😯😶😕😬😧
Awesome video, do you have a video like this for the P2 XC70s (2006)?
We don't at the moment but we can add that to the list!
What size are the bolts that hold the radiator sandwich together? The four at the top?
Thank you
this video is great helped me r/r my radiator though it failed to mention to remove the fitting from the sides to reuse again. but other than that this was good.
so now ... I've replaced the heater core the radiator and my gauge still indicates that the engine is running hot. Top hose is hot bottom hose is cold/cool. Fan turns on. temp gauge goes up about 3/4th of the way up. does the water pump have anything to do with these symptoms?
JS T yeah if your water pump is original, it may be missing some of the fins on the impeller that push water through the syatem (which was a problem on my old 98 T5)
My dad was all like: "Oh, it's the oil pan, we have to buy a new one."
Then how did my car only leak when the pumps were running? The oil radiator hoses had gotten separated from the radiator and that's what was causing the leak. I have a problem finding the hoses, though, since I have to swap out almost every single hose and pipe that goes from or to the radiator.
Here is an oil cooler hose replacement kit: www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-engine-oil-cooler-hose-replacement-kit-850-c70-s70-v70-oem-parts-oilcoolerhosekit
Hi, trying to determine the age of my radiator prior to tearing into that area anyways. Does the OEM radiator have a date code? If so where is it located (can I see it with it installed?). 2004 V70R. Thanks
I have a 98 T5 manual and noticed my coolant in the bowl was cream coffee colored. No temperature issues and no codes. I'm thinking the radiator has ruptured but it's not leaking.
Next day, I have to drive 30 miles and after about five miles coolant light comes on. I'd have to refill the bowl more the faster I went, and less on the back roads. About every eight miles on average. Again, no temperature gauge indication of any overheating. I reach home, turn off the car and nothing is leaking (although once during a refill with the car idling, I notice leaks coming from the back bottom of the car).
When I get ready to replace the radiator and drain the petcock-- all coolant is green (and new) until the last few drops then a few drops of oil. When I remove the bottom rad hose mostly green but more oil--all cream coffee colored.
I'm wondering if it's the radiator, the lines, or a combo. I'm not thinking head gasket. Thoughts?
Also, notice my radiator has only two lines on the passenger side that clamp on with those god-forsaken clamps that cost $30 each at the dealership. Can't find a replacement radiator that doesn't have four--one in each corner. How will this make a difference?
ajp46321 Can you email your VIN to jasonv@fcpeuro.com? I want to try and get you some good information regarding your issue.

What did you use to lube the oil line connectors? Vaseline or ????
hey how come the intercooler wasnt visible in the removal of the radiator ?
Hi, I have a 2002 volvo s60 awd and I'm wondering if the removal would be the same as the removal shown in this video?
Essentially the same concept but I would prefer to remove from the bottom if possible.
Ben, I just replaced my lower radiator hose and now i'm having engine overheat problems. Upper hose is mildly warm but overflow tank is not boiling. Stopcock in lower radiator has fluid in it, so I don't think it's obstructed. I've read about air? Anything else? Thanks for your help in advance.
Sounds like an air pocket to me as well. I would remove the expansion tank cap when the engine is completely cold, start it up, and raise the RPM's to about 2k and hold it for about 2 mins. This usually does the trick for me.
Would most of this apply to a non-turbo as well?
Hi Ben, on my '99 V70 non-turbo, I snapped the two 12mm bolts that were holding the radiator in place. On the other side of the frame there is some sort of bracket that was holding the fan I believe. I haven't been able to get the bolts out of said brackets. My question is: is it more likely that they're rusted in there or are the designed to stay in those brackets?
Devan Nelson Could you email me at jasonv@fcpeuro.com? I believe you're referring to the small little threaded blocks that insert into the radiator housing which allows the fan somewhere to " fasten to".
at 6:00 removing 12mm bolts.. mine won't unthread.. on both sides.. You can see the other side of them from under the hood.. my guess is bolt threads are rusted. Were pain to loosen then finally did, was unscrewing them still pretty difficult, then all of a sudden nothing. they move freely left and right, not getting more loose or more tight. Whats my next procedure?
Hello Matt, please email products@fcpeuro.com and reference this video we'll be happy to help out.
hey do you have a list of required tools?
does anyone know if this works vor s60 I 2.4 140hp?
Is the car sitting on jack stands?
Hi Ben, great video and great FCP. Since there is no video available for Radiator replacement for S80 1999-2006, have a question, Can I take out the radiator out by lifting up (7:20) same as you did of my s80 99 non turbo? any caution to do this job my self.
Major Code Yes, it can be done however dropping it through the bottom is much easier in my opinion.
Hi Ben, just replace the radiator on my '98 V70, and water spills over the reservoir, someone told me that it could be a blown head gasket. Any help will be apreciated. Thank you.
BsAsArg You may want to email our Volvo specialist Jason at JasonV@fcpeuro.com with more details about the issue you are having.
What kind of lubricant is being applied to the transmission & oil cooler connections?
It is being put on with a black brush and appears to be a clear gel. Is it silicone?
I don't remember exactly what it was, but I believe it was just a silicone gel.
FCP Euro Thanks for the prompt reply. So I'm OK using EZe Slide brake lube? Great video BTW!
I have a 98 V70 XC. You pulled the radiator out from the top. Can I do the same?
Everything I have seen says I have to remove it from the bottom.
It'll come out either way. The reason why most repair information says from the bottom is because they assume it's being done on the lift. Clearance will be an issue either way and you'll have to remove the fan shroud.
Ben what are you using to "cap" off the lower oil and trans. fluid nipples? I see a black rubber cap. Where are you getting these, please.
Those are actually the caps off the new radiator, we just switched them to the old one. Hope that helps. Don't hesitate to let me know if we can be of any more assistance, my name is Mike and I can be reached at mike@fcpeuro.com
Do 2001 Volvo S80 2.9's require cooling system flushes or only a simple drain and refill? I can't find this information anywhere.
A simple drain and fill at the radiator won't remove all of the coolant and sediment from the entire system so I always recommend a complete flush. There are also some additive's available to condition the system.
FCP Euro Is there a chemical coolant system flushing product that you recommend? I'm vacillating between Prestone Superflush and CRC 10-Minute Radiator Flush. Thanks.
Great video, replaced my leaking rad on my 96' 850 turbo with the Nissens replacement from FCP. Only issue is that the intercooler now seems to have lots of play moving forward and back. In the video there seems to be spacers/bumpers that are used (9:08) that aren't there initially (1:30) when you are pulling out the old radiator. Can't find these spacers on FCP were they added for this reason? Thanks again and help or feedback would be appreciated.
Those are actually from an intercooler we installed at the same time, the spacers are there because the new intercooler was significantly larger, though we didn't address the intercooler install in the video.
FCP Euro So is that back and forth play in the intercooler normal? I didn't notice it when I was pulling out the old radiator.
Cam Proud It really shouldn't wiggle, is everything seated properly? Sometimes a small misalignment can make a world of a difference.
What Brand is that intercooler. 🙄
when the cooling system is empty? shall i start the car and fill while its running? or will to max level, then start and make it hot and keep filling as the water drops down?
No. Fill when the car is off. I really can't see it damaging anything but I've never done it this way and I've never seen the fill method directed this way either.
nvm my car is ruined... leak in the cylinder... i keep gettin this goozzy water in the coolant system... probably exhaust / water mix? its like white cream. smells exhaust
ReadyToEnjoyYou I would guess head gasket.
5sp? Only oil cooler... correct?
Hey Ben are all the bolts and everything is the same as a non turbo isn't it? TY
Hi Debbie, It's basically the same process, the only difference is the non-turbo doesn't have the engine oil cooler lines which, makes things a little easier.
I got a 240dl Volvo 1988 Which coolant do you think will be the best for it?
Thanks
Karen Burgos We always recommend the Genuine Volvo coolant, it's the recommended quality and affordable: www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-engine-coolant-genuine-volvo-9434699
Hi, will it be the same for XC90 ? Do you have a video for that car as well ? Thanks.
The procedure in the XC90 is very similar, unfortunately we don't have a video, my apologies.
Thanks Jason, I was told that XC90 radiator has to be replaced from the bottom, but you took it out from the top so probably XC90 not similar to 850. We have the radiator now and going to replace it today,hopefully with no drama.
************************
Update
We replaced it by removing the radiator from the bottom. We kept the fan on it and remove it when radiator was out.
We tied up the condenser and inter-cooler with a rope to the car to hold them up.
It took in total around 90 mins,but yeah I couldn't do it myself, it requires a lot of strength.
what is the lubricant at 10:40?
hey Ben, what is with the Transmission Oil? Do I have to refill it also? Alex
+Alexander Braun What type of repair are you referring to? Feel free to email our Volvo specialist JasonV@fcpeuro.com for assistance with this issue.
I can tell you now. It's not as easy as this at all. Was a utter ball ache
Hi Ben... Would white Lithium grease be acceptable as a a lubricant?
Charles Kennedy I'd recommend either a synthetic non petroleum based grease or even transmission fluid will do.
Charles Kennedy KY jelly (serious) water based and super slick. It's helped me get bushings in quite a bit where fitting tolerances are incredibly tight.
Nothing like a KJ Jelly recommendation from Arnie to bring a smile to my face! So funny!
I got the radiator in, but will keep the KY Jelly tip in mind for the next time I have to get a tight hose on.
What coolant do you recommend?
Genuine Volvo Anti-freeze is always a good option www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-engine-coolant-genuine-volvo-9434699
Great, it took no more than 15 minutes to do the actual job. In the Volvo Dealership and repair, they charge you over 2.5 hours or more hours to do the job! I guess customer pay for their employee breaks too!
