Before servicing or repairing the radiator on a 3.0L diesel engine, drain the coolant first. Afterwards, remove the head lamps, then take out the front cross member and front grille all at once. Following that, take out the front
Bumper and take off the bolts holding the air charge hose to the sheet metal and
Intercooler. Take out both air intake pipes and remove both coolant hoses from inside the coolant recovery container. Take out the connector from the coolant level sensor and get rid of the hose at the bottle right side of the radiator. Remove the transmission cooler lines from the radiator and also remove the trimming on both sides of the radiator. Following this, take the
Radiator fan off, along with any bolts that keep the intercooler linked to the radiator. Remove the bolts and top trim from the radiator, then relocate the condenser/intercooler/power steering cooler assembly ahead. Take off the entire assembly of the radiator from the rubber grommets and remove the charge air cooler along with the steering cooler loop attached at the radiator. After those steps, take off the bottom radiator trim, disconnect the radiator hose on the radiator, remove the coolant hose from the fan shroud together with the radiator hose and remove the radiator fan shroud.
