The car is '95 945T. I just finished replacing following: radiator, thermostat, heater valve, expansion tank and cap, all radiator hoses, and oiler cooler hoses. I didn't replace the heater hoses. The original radiator had sprung a leak, and I decided to replace as much of the cooling system as I could. This is a brief recap, because there was past interest in how such a job would go for a novice. I started yesterday about 11AM and finished today about 3 pm. This included a trip to the dealer yesterday for the oil cooler hoses and a drive at the end to check things out. The other parts were from FCPG. I had the front end up on ramps in order to work underneath. The Brickboard FAQs pretty much has all you need for this job. It's straightforward in principle. I drained the system using a valve on heater cooler pipe; no valve on the block as I learned from a BB reply. Problem areas were the heater cooler hoses, which I didn't plan for and were a PITA, and the crowded environment at heater valve/hose location. The fact that I was missing one of the heater hoses led me to replace the heater valve only and not do the heater hoses. Hopefully, they will hold up. The expansion tank looked just like the picture in the FAQs with bottom connector rotting away. Good thing I replaced it. The end of the pipe coming from the turbo and to the expansion tank and radiator via a three-way hose is rusting, both outside and inside. I guess that is a future job. I filled it with 50% Prestone (green); it took 8 quarts, so two must not have drained out. After assembling and driving the car on the freeway, I lost about half the coolant in the expansion tank due to a drip from the bottom radiator hose. I tightened that clamp and stopped the leak. I was being mindful about not tightening it too much and overcompensated. Other connections seem to be holding. The air conditioner seems to be working better, suggesting that hot water was making it past the heater valve when closed.
