Land Rover Repair: Discovery II Radiator Replacement, radiator replacement, replacement radiator


Question
I have purchased a replacement radiator from Atlantic British.  I have removed all of the obvious bolts and screws and hoses but the installed radiator appears attached at the bottom and won't come out.  Is it just stuck in grommets at the bottom?  Can you tell me how to remove it?

Answer
There is a torx screw on the right side of the transmission cooler that needs to be removed.  Bend the pipe on the left (driver) side of the transmission cooler.  The pipe needs to be slightly bent out of the way and the cooler must be slid out along the back side allowing the radiator to be removed.  It is not a pleasant job.
