needed like 8 liters to fill and burp the system with a bit of spillage but thanks marti...but for diy, the KOYO rad 53mm core i think is was was easy to fit and did the thermie too.. looks great and car drives better.

Much better to do it yourself than getting it installed Very easy job. nothing a 10mm socket an a 13mm can't fix(few screw drivers) an all done

I've been told to steer away from that stuff so ever since only stuck to oem, not the particular gold you are using tho as I've never seen it to be honest. You've used it for 4+ years and have nothing bad to say about it which is a good indication that the stuff works.

There are two 13mm that need to be taken out so you can remove your rad. Forget what part but there in there. Trust me I did it yesterday
