Hi there , for several weeks I had a coolant leak in my jag.. I checked the lower hose because was the area of leaking, I cleaned the outlet connection, I tighten hose clamp very well, but no luck still a leak..
Well after some days more the issue was reveled.. I has a minor crack in plastic radiator 10cm upper lower hose, yesterday I put some compound cool weld , but I presume that this will be a temporary solution
I need to replace the radiator I read the JITIS and I couldnīt find the procedure , could some one send the tech procedure to remove and install the radiator ? I need to disconnect the ac lines? to lost the ac refrigerant? some one could share step by step the procedure? thank you very much..

Only the header tank differs ,
I managed to change mine without degassing the A/C , but did have to bend the alloy AC pipe out of the way of the lower hose outlet !
Then bend it back again afterwards , it's not too hard to do , but a very tight fit .
Start by removing the under tray , and unplunging the cooling fan from underneath , drain the system with the drain plug on the lower side of the radiator , then remove the header tank.
There are many how To's on that procedure ,
then remove the top hose , then unbolt the secondary coolant pump and DCCV from the back of the fan shroud , un bolt the fan and slide it out the top , then dissconect the trans lines and the lower hose , remove the 6 top mount bolts and the plastic mounts ,in bolt the trans cooler/PS cooler brackets from the front of the radiator , bend the AC pipe a little and very carfully , then lift out the radiator , reverse for refitting .
