Checking radiators for fouling
Checking radiators for fouling
Detritus from the road may enter the vehicle front air intake and foul the radiators; over time, this may
compromise the functionality of the cooling systems so that they are no longer capable of providing sufficient
cooling.
It is therefore VITAL that the radiator cores are checked for fouling at each scheduled service and cleaned, if
necessary, using the following procedure.
Check the radiator cores for fouling.
In the event of fouling, clean with a pressurised water jet or equivalent method.
Check for any dirt accumulated between the water radiator and the AC condenser.
Remove the front bumper ONLY in the event of very heavy fouling.
ONLY in the event of very stubborn dirt, which may be possible with particularly high mileage vehicles,
remove the radiator assembly and remove the dirt by blowing air from the rear of the radiators.
Checking the condition of the radiators
Periodically check the condition of the radiator core. Clean the radiator fins, removing any leaves, insects or
other matter that could obstruct air flow and lead to overheating of the fluid. Straighten any bending
present while being careful not to cause breakage of the radiator core.
Replace the radiator if it proves to be in poor condition.
Periodically check the state of the pipe couplings.
