Hyundai Repair: 2001 Elantra radiator removal, air conditioning condensor, elantra


Question
I've removed the 2 fan elec connectors, top/bottom hoses, the 2 cooler hoses & the 2 mounting bolts. However there appears to be another cooler in front of the radiator w/ brackets that come up over each side and bolt into the top of the radiator.  I've removed the bolts but the radiator still doesn't want to pull up.  Is there something else that I'm missing?

Answer
The other cooler in front of the radiator is the air conditioning condensor.  If you look from the back side of the radiator on either side about 2/3 of the way down, you'll see two more bolts attaching the condensor to the radiator.  Once these are removed, you should be home free.  Be sure to reinstall all these bolts on reassembly.  If they're not all reinstalled, the condensor and radiator may rub against one another and cause a leak.
