Frequently Asked Questions
Does this come with hoses and clamps?
Radiator assembly only. Hoses, clamps, and coolant are sold separately — confirm your current hose condition before ordering, since old rubber can fail during install.
Will this fit my manual transmission Beetle?
This is built for automatic transmission cooling specs. Manual transmission Beetles run a different core design — confirm your transmission type before checkout to avoid a return.
Do I need to flush the system before installing?
Flush the cooling system completely before swap. Old coolant residue can clog a fresh core and undo your installation work.
