Thank you so much! Huge lifesaver. My AC stopped blowing cold air and we noticed that something was making seeping noise near radiator after refilling refrigerant. At first i tried replacing a relay like others suggested but that didn't work. Then i tried refilling refrigerant then found out it wouldn't hold it, it would not go to "filled" bar. That's when i realized it was leaking. I bought a radiator and followed your video how to get it replaced which was very helpful. My brother noticed that the condenser is actually what was connected to the AC cold air so i went ahead and bought that from orielly's and replaced it. Refilled coolant, refilled refrigerant. Now AC is working! I am not a mechanic, inexperienced, and i hate working with cars but i managed to do it still. In total it took me about 5 hours total. And for all the parts i bought plus coolant and bought refrigerant 3 times all total cost me about 330$.

Wow, you make this look easy. I think I may be able to replace my radiator myself. Motivated to do it myself when I'm told 2.5 hours for labor bt a mechanic and you did it less than 1 hour.

[@justingolden5287]

Y’all gotta understand you got charged 2.5 cuz the shop that does the things you don’t wanna do has electric bills, insurance, they gotta pay to remove ur waste fluids etc…

[@SABSMirK]

This video is perfect! Thorough explanations and clear visual aide. Thank you for this!

[@johnhunter8959]

well done video, got me through the whole process in little over an hour thanks much!

[@lesliedddawson]

Awesome video. So well done. I’m buying the part from you guys. And will be a regular customer. Help to save money these days means so much. Thank you for teaching. Also because I love to learn about my 09 Civic. Had it almost 10 years now.

[@PickleRickSanchez]

Honestly love the lack of cuts in the vid, really helps for real life implementation

[@1AAuto]

+David Lanphear Thanks for the feedback!

[@NCArsenal]

Best video tutorial I've ever used hands down

[@BackyardEngineer334]

Here because my car slipped off my floor jack while attempting to change my oil & busted the radiator.........

[@lighthousep4778]

Same thing but I was changing my front struts

[@juansaucedo8118]

@ 20:46 ? Name of the part your reinstalling? Having a hard time looking for that part? Any recommendations?

[@Elliott03able]

So helpful. I appreciate you guys

[@rreinhard43]

Hello it’s me again I had my car towed to the mechanics because I didn’t want to chance it overheating. So what was wrong with my car was there were air pockets and overzealous neighbor that was helping me did not want to use my radiator funnel. The car apparently did not idle long enough for the thermostat to open. I didn’t know how long this would take and it didn’t wasn’t indicated on your video. For people like me I know nothing about mechanics I am learning if there is a detail that’s left out is going to mess me up because I’m not mechanically inclined thank you

[@raiderrichard7291]

My radiator is leaking at the top on the drivers side. It’s leaking down but it’s weird because I can’t find the leak. I’m assuming it’s cracked. I will be doing this procedure myself. No one will sucker me for my cheese.

[@carlosgarza1962]

Excellent video. Thanks, very detailed

[@acenspades5106]

Great video but I can’t get the final piece of the radiator hose off, the large black one used to remove with a pry bar, it simply will not come off

[@alexandercastro6485]

Buen video bien explicado todo gracias

[@chrism81804]

You couldve gotten the radiator out just by taking out the front radiator support bar

[@millsymillsymillsy]

is that easier?

[@punishedfluff4054]

Here because I played bumper cars with a tree :)

[@jp554731]

Is this the same for the K20z3 engine Civic Si?

[@emverham]

Just did this! Thanks

[@jondoe8474]

Exactly video. Just watch . Pause do it . Perfect

[@carleynorthcoast1915]

funny seeing this nice production for the rad when the youtube videos for the serpentine are so sketchy you shouldn't watch them alone

[@BenAdivaDIY]

Perfect 🔧

[@bradleyosornio9566]

So the auto doesn't have 2 cooler lines that connect to the radiator?

[@btx5740]

After watching these videos I just want to go take my car a part

[@adkish19]

Hey 1a auto can this radiator work with si? The car you worked on is not si. Do they work for all trims?

[@neyrodriguez1523]

hello, how many channels is the original radiator of the 2008 Honda Civic?

[@antonioreyes8752]

Good job.

[@lostresmosqueteros23]

thanks for this video!

[@victorfernandez7908]

Excelente thanks a lot

[@SurgieStudios]

20:42 can someone give me a link to both of these? I got an 09 but the connection is just a thin metal connector not plastic. It’s also not OEM

[@bragadodyan7623]

What size is the coolant temperature sensor O RING?

[@bryndyrit1493]

Brilliant

[@darkness9257]

The radiator connector for the top hose has broken, do i need to replace the radiator entirely or is there another way to fix it?

[@cryptotuga9074]

I got Civic fn2 my radiator placed tanks for video

[@openyourmindandheart7815]

Civic AT or MT have different radiator types?

[@Chopcity_213]

what is the part called in front of the radiator?

[@blixxy1320]

didn't really need to take the battery out but mines an 2009

[@manjitgrewal1975]

Thanks buddy

[@txjeb]

Not sure why you wouldn't just do hoses, if you're replacing a radiator.

[@YoungGearHeads]

I did this without removing the battery by not loosening the bolt by the better and swinging the upper support upwards.

[@shortboss4289]

Informative

[@1AAuto]

+Short Boss Thank you!

[@chriskolb7238]

Was this automatic or manual trans

[@mauwtwo8670]

Thanks....

[@Faith_007]

What is the size of this radiator, does it fit Honda Civic LX 2008 4 door, 1.8 engine, and also where is the thermostat, they said it needs to be replace too when the radiator is not good and is leaking causing overheat, and how much it cost including labour to replace the thermostat ? Thank you!

[@johngibboney7520]

When he pulled out that 2nd hose that grey looking thing it was going into is the thermostat

[@aleramirez8840]

Hi, on minute 22:02 can you take off the part (sorry idk the name of it) before putting the hose in?

[@marissauzeta7174]

The white little part, I think it was the temperature sensor.

[@aliroceballos8861]

¿es para un auto manual o automático?

[@arthurpowers7756]

[@roshtatem]

ambos

[@rreinhard43]

Ok, I watched this video many times and did it step by step. However, the part where you take the temperature sensor out from bottom of radiator. The video wasn't clear and the mechanic's hand was blocking the view. My neighbor pulled it out for me and then decided to "take charge" and finish. Well, my fans do not kick on, runs too hot and gauge climbs to 3/4 after too long of a wait. Fans does turn on when ac is on. Without ac on, the fans normally kick on within 1 to 2 minutes of car idling, but not now. Now the check engine light is on (I have had a new engine that was installed in September 2020), so I know there isn't anything wrong with my engine. What could this be? I did replace the temperature sensor beneath the radiator. Still same problems.

[@melvincarrera9691]

You probably missed to conect some wires

[@YosefCal]

😂😂😂 here because I was changing motor mounts and the jack busted the radiator😂😂

[@NOAHCASAS]

HANDS DOWN WORST RADIATOR DESIGN HONDA HAS EVER MADE

[@shortboss4289]

Can you ship that sensor to me in Trinidad ?

[@1AAuto]

Thanks for checking us out! We do not currently offer the temperature sensor for this particular application. +Short Boss

[@rreinhard43]

did you say trim clip pliers? I cant seem to find this, trying to buy the tools you are using in the video, wish you link them down below.

[@1AAuto]

+Rochelle R Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.

[@Jesus-in3oz]

I noticed that the radiator aluminum fins are less thin (in depth) than OEM, is that OK? will it cause overheating?

[@dr.z3426]

A guy I'm another A1 auto video says it's a t35 torx bolt and here you are saying it's a t30 lol

[@savannahprecious400]

You made this more difficult than it is

[@1AAuto]

+Savannah Precious We appreciate the feedback. Sometimes there are multiple ways to accomplish the same repair.

[@drury2d8]

is this made in china
