Radiators

Your Volkswagen radiator plays the important part of keeping your engine running at cool temps. A simple concept, but an intricate system, the radiator is essential to keeping your engine functioning properly while avoiding overheating and stalling. A radiator works like this.

Usually located at the front end of the engine compartment, the radiator is used to cool cycled coolant after it passes through the engine with help from the water pump. Because your engine runs at warm temperatures, the coolant is designed to absorb heat. Then, it passes back through the fins of the radiator where it is cooled and recycled back toward the engine to begin the process again.

Radiators can last up to 80,000+ miles depending on driving conditions. Over time, they can wear out or become damaged from road debris. Signs that your radiator is going bad are:

• Coolant leaks or low levels
• Sludge build up in radiator
• A check engine light signifying engine overheating

Shall you experience any failing radiator symptoms, conduct an inspection ASAP. See if there are any leaks or damage to your radiator fins and check your hoses for any leaks. Once you locate the radiator issues, shop our VW parts and get paired with the fitted parts you need to make the fix.
