Great video, as a fellow Canadian I found this harlious lol. Especially the transparent part hahaha. I'm about to do this same job to my 2006 vibe. Thanks
I never conceived of these rotary ratchets before (never occurred to me that there is such a thing). Added them to my amazon wish list, waiting for warehouse deal on them (because I'm a brokie). Good video also.
After I placed in the new radiator with the top bolts attached too it was shaky when I moved it up and down and side to side. Is it suppose to stay completely held down or loose? And does this mean I need new grommets
Hey Trevor if your hose clamps are in good condition you do not have to replace them. However if your hose clamps are rusted then it's probably best to replace them.
I don't know of any places that sell the brass fittings for the radiator separately. They're usually included with a new radiator. I think your best bet would be to go to the scrap yard and hopefully find a decent set or to contact the dealership with your VIN number and they may be able to email you a parts list with picture so you can see what it may be. Sometimes they're hard to decipher.
Hey Angelo, generally with the hoses if they look like they're cracking or bulging in any one specific place it's definitely time to change them. Also if it looks like there is coolant coming from the end or edge of the holes most times you have internal crack in the hose. Hoses are made with two rubber layers and a fiber sort of string cloth layer in the middle of the inner and outer rubber. I know kind of confusing maybe I'll do a video explaining it. Essentially in my opinion unless they fail or look like they're going to fail I don't usually replace them. However if they have been exposed to contaminants such as oil or dirty coolant it's probably a good idea to replace whichever ones are needed. Hopefully that helps you out. If it doesn't just ask me what may be confusing and I'll try my best to explain it.
Oh man that's no fun in the rain. If it makes you feel any better it is currently minus 10 in Toronto and they say it feels like mine is 15 so I'll take rain over the cold any day LOL. Good luck my friend
@@JimmysAutoClinic damn that is cold bro. Hope you have a good indoor heaters in the shop for that. I’m on Maui. I can’t complain but it does rain nonstop where I live ha ha.
Generally one jug should be enough however I always recommend getting two because you don't want to be short with antifreeze especially if you're in the north where Winter is always fun.
Really it's only necessary if the vehicle overheats or loses fluid as it can deform the thermostat. But it's not absolutely necessary. Not a bad idea though. Thanks for the comment. Please subscribe to the channel if you haven't already.
Loved this video! Step by step and didn't leave anything out - allowed 2 girls(daughter and I) to change a radiator on a 2007 Toyota.

Do I have to replace the hose clamps?
Hey Trevor if your hose clamps are in good condition you do not have to replace them. However if your hose clamps are rusted then it's probably best to replace them.
Just did this today. I have a leak from the bottom left. 😭 I may have left the bottom hose clamp screw a little loose. I'll check tomorrow.
Good luck my friend.
@@JimmysAutoClinic Looks like it was the screw. It hasn't leaked for about 2 weeks now since I tightened it.
@Trevor597 nice, it's always nice when it's a simple repair.
Anyone know if they sell those brass fittings connecting the radiator hose?
I don't know of any places that sell the brass fittings for the radiator separately. They're usually included with a new radiator. I think your best bet would be to go to the scrap yard and hopefully find a decent set or to contact the dealership with your VIN number and they may be able to email you a parts list with picture so you can see what it may be.

How do I know if I should change the hoses? you are funny bro thank you

@@JimmysAutoClinic thanks man much appreciated. Working on getting this radiator Done with little breaks in the rain ha ha
Oh man that's no fun in the rain. If it makes you feel any better it is currently minus 10 in Toronto and they say it feels like mine is 15 so I'll take rain over the cold any day LOL. Good luck my friend

I keep it at a wonderful 10° Celsius in the shop during winter. It's what the pocketbook can afford LOL. Google where you live OMG amazing.
How much antifreeze need Toyota corolla
Generally one jug should be enough however I always recommend getting two because you don't want to be short with antifreeze especially if you're in the north where Winter is always fun.
It will be a good idea to replace thermostat when you do this?
