Product Information

  • Core Width 419 mm
  • Core Depth 32 mm
  • Cooling fins material Aluminium
  • Supplementary Article/Info 2 without frame
  • Water Tank Material (radiator) Plastic

When replacing your radiator you will lose coolant. FCP recommends ordering either Genuine or OE equivalent coolant. We do not recommend use of universal style pre-mixed coolants with your Volvo.

Note: Depending on the fuel injection system of your Volvo you may been to order additional parts. Please see the recommendations below:

Regina fuel injection: Use with fan switch 9135545

Bosch fuel injection: Requires bushing #1378869 and sensor hole fill plug #1274052. This is included with the radiator.

For some vehicles, the fan switch is moved from the side of the tank to the face. There is a plug on the side of the tank, but this has been deleted in a supersession. The hex on the side of the radiator is not a screw plug, do not try to remove it. Install your fan switch in the new location on the face of the tank.

If the original radiator has a screw in fan clutch, also use 9135545.

Radiator

Your radiator is an integral, and arguably, the most important part of the cooling system. It is designed to expel heat from the coolant via the small fins. Most radiators fail when the end tanks crack causing leaks, but higher mileage radiators which have missing or bent fins often are clogged up with debris which can also cause overheating issues as the radiator cannot expel heat effectively. If your radiator is in rough shape we recommend replacing it. We also highly recommend inspecting/replacing the upper and lower radiator hose at that time.

Radiator Failure Symptoms
  • Overheating
  • Coolant Leak
  • Cracking
  • Bent Fins
  • Clogged Fins caused by debris

Volvo Radiator
The shipping of this item is very tricky and could use more protective packaging to guard against handling.

Image of the part is not what you get. Mine had an unnecessary hole in it and required a grommet and plug to fill it, no instruction either. Prior Nissen had no hole and exactly like the image. Call to FCP said the MFG makes only one part to accommodate both Regina and Bosch, thus the hole for Regina. Also the ATF line is must be positioned slightly lower due to the hole. Note: This should be stated upfront before purchase and the image should be corrected. Installed, but does not fit exactly, one of the top hold-on brackets is now angled some, so something is off an little. Have not has tested for leaks yet as am still waiting the other parts ordered from FCP.

It's a radiator. What more can I say? I took the old clogged and corroded rad out and put this one in. I also did it at the same time that I was changing out my timing belt and water pump anyway. Car runs as cool as a new car. Perfect. I can sit in 95 degree Tennessee traffic with the AC on full and have no worries. How many other 500 thousand mile cars can claim that?

Question Posted by Kesha
My original radiator for my 1994 Volvo 940 base wagon required a Regina Temp Switch, so I bought a new one from FCP Euro...However, the switch is too large and does not fit in the opening for the plug...What do I do?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
We tested our stock on both the radiator and the sensor/switch and they do work together. Since the seal must hold under pressure, it is a tight fit. You may find using some water will help push it into place. The plug that comes with it and the sensor 9135545 are the same diameters according to our findings.
Question Posted by Calvin
