I've got a '93 944T and I'm about to order a 3 row radiator. I've seen some places differentiate between turbo and non-turbo models, and some who say a 740 radiator or even a 240 will fit. Can anyone help me out and tell me wich models/years are directly compatable. This is starting to get annoying hearing different things from everyone i call.

    Volvo recently sent me a price list for common parts. The radiator list for
    740/940 has 8 different rows (!). Kind of messy...

    4 cyl man excl B204FT w/o AC
    4 cyl auto excl B204FT w/o AC
    4 cyl man excl B204FT w/o AC, Tropic
    4 cyl auto excl B204FT w/o AC, Tropic
    1992- 4 cyl auto AC excl Turbo
    1992- 4 cyl auto excl B204FT, AC, Turbo
    1992- 4 cyl man excl B204FT AC, Turbo
    1992- 4 cyl man, AC w/o Turbo

    You can check
    http://www.pvd.no/lysakerbil/Lysaker%20Bil_files/Kataloger/Motordeler.pdf
    page 122-124 and also
    http://www.oconnellusedvolvos.com/Cooling_Heating_table.html
    to do some comparisons.

    I have a 93 945 manual, N/A with ECC and it took me four trips to three different Volvo dealers to get the right radiator and all parts needed.
    When I had the right radiator they had still missed to sell me the rubber plug that goes in if you don't have the temperature sensor in the radiator.
    Hope you have better luck than I had.

      I bet you could get away with one or two different radiators.

      Manual v auto probably means Volvo's trying to get away with
      selling cheaper radiators that don't have the autobox coolers
      built in. The other possibly have different holes for the various
      A/C, ECC, etc temp sensors.

    Two weeks after I purchased a 91 940 SE wagon the upper hose connector broke off of the original radiator. The rest of it was just fine, but the plastic tank turned to brittle junk from heat. I purchased an after market one for about $160 that had metal tanks. I think/hope that it is much better. I wouldn't want another plastic tank.

    I just ordered two (2) core nissens radiators from Groton for our 92 gl and 945T - the applications called for two different radiators.
