I need to replace my radiator, 99 V70 non turbo. Does it need to come out from underneath the car?
I seem to see different opinions about this.
Any reliable step by step instructions on-line?

Thanks

A pair of ramps are ideal for this. Yes, it does go down.

When you order a new radiator, make sure it is not the turbo version which has different hose locations. Also order new upper and lower hoses and new clamps.

A lot of folks like to swap the thermostat at this time.

Stat is one year old, but i will do the hoses, I have found cheap rads on-line, but Tasca sells OEM for not much more.
