Title: How to refit/remove a rad?
Post by: paulharpur1978 on 08 September 2009, 21:11

Is there a "How to.." guide on removing a rad for a VW Golf Mk4 GTI? or even a kick in the right direction.  :angry:

Well, I couldn't find a guide to this so if anyone else needs to know, heres how you remove a rad.
Remove bumper, its simple, theres a good video knocking around. Remove 5 screws up around by the front grille, theres 1 screw either side behind the fog light covers & 4 screws in each wheel arch. Thats it,  slide her off. Headlights are held in by 4 srews, disconnect the power cable.  All that holds the rad in is 4 mounting screws. The mounting screws screw into a bracket on a mounting rubber, my brackets are damaged or not there but I'm ordering them tomorrow so will take a few photos while I'm fitting them on Saturday.

Next job get new headlights, annis I think :grin:
