FAQs

What materials is the Nissens 620152 radiator made from?

The radiator features aluminum cooling fins and plastic water tanks.

Is this radiator a direct replacement for my vehicle?

You must verify compatibility with your specific vehicle's make, model, and year before purchasing. This radiator is designed as an OE equivalent.

How often should I check my radiator coolant level?

It is recommended to check your coolant level regularly, ideally before long drives and at least once a month, especially in extreme weather conditions.

Can I use any type of coolant with this radiator?

Always use the coolant type and mixture recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer to ensure proper performance and prevent system damage.

What is the benefit of aluminum cooling fins?

Aluminum offers excellent thermal conductivity, allowing for efficient heat transfer from the coolant to the air, thus improving cooling performance.

Are the plastic tanks durable?

The plastic water tanks are designed for durability and resistance to corrosion, offering a lightweight alternative. However, they may be more susceptible to physical impact damage than metal tanks.

What does 'Brazed cooling fins' mean?

Brazing is a joining process that creates a strong, leak-free bond between the cooling fins and tubes, ensuring the structural integrity of the radiator.

Troubleshooting

Engine overheating after installation

Verify proper coolant level, check for air pockets in the system (bleeding may be required), and ensure all hose connections are secure and leak-free. Confirm the fan is operating correctly.

Visible leaks from the radiator

Inspect all connection points, including hose clamps and mounting areas. If leaks are originating from the core or tanks, the radiator may need replacement.

Reduced cooling efficiency

Clean the radiator fins of any debris. Ensure adequate airflow through the radiator and check that the thermostat is functioning correctly.

Radiator making unusual noises

This could indicate an issue with the fan or water pump. Inspect these components for proper operation and bearing wear.

Care:

  • Regularly inspect the radiator for visible signs of damage, such as bent fins or leaks.
  • Keep the exterior of the radiator clean by gently hosing it down to remove debris that can impede airflow. Avoid using high-pressure washers directly on the fins.
  • Ensure the coolant level is maintained as per the vehicle manufacturer's guidelines to prevent internal corrosion and ensure efficient cooling.
  • Periodically check coolant condition; replace it at the recommended intervals.
