If you’re looking to keep your engine running smoothly, you might want to check out the CSF Engine Coolant Radiator. This isn’t just any radiator; it’s designed with an OE style that fits right in, making it a solid choice for those who want to maintain their ride without compromising on quality. Trust me, keeping your cooling system in check is crucial for extending the life of your engine, and this radiator is built to do just that.
Let’s get into the nitty-gritty. This bad boy features a crossflow design with a single row that measures 25 1/16" in length and 20 11/16" in width. It’s got a core thickness of 7/8", all made from aluminum, while the tanks are crafted from durable plastic. You’ll find the inlet on the upper driver side and the outlet on the lower passenger side, both with a diameter of 1 11/16". Plus, it comes with an oil cooler that’s 11 13/16" for the high-efficiency plate type and 9 7/16" for the concentric type, which is great if you’re pushing your engine to the limits.
What really sets this radiator apart is its construction. The OEM specified plastic tank-aluminum core combo means it’s built to last. The tanks are made from virgin grade engineered plastic resins that are glass-filled for extra strength. And those gaskets? They’re made from special grade EPDM rubber, designed to handle extreme temperatures—up to -120°F! The fins, which are the heart of the radiator, feature a high-performance multi-louvered design, maximizing cooling efficiency.
Before this radiator even leaves the factory, it’s put through the wringer with a 100% leak test at 150% of operating pressure. Talk about peace of mind! Plus, CSF takes packaging seriously, with a “10-foot drop test” standard to ensure your radiator arrives in perfect shape. Every component is installed, torqued, and tested during assembly, so you know you’re getting a top-notch product.
CSF has been in the game for over 50 years, and they know their stuff. They offer a wide variety of automotive radiator models, covering over 3,200 applications, from Acura to Volkswagen. Whether you’re rolling with copper-brass or aluminum, CSF has the right fit for you. Their radiators are engineered and wind tunnel tested for cooling performance, so you can trust that this is a reliable choice for your vehicle.
As for fitment, this radiator is compatible with the Mercedes GL Class from 2007 to 2012 and the M Class from 2006 to 2011. Just a heads up: when you’re swapping out your radiator, make sure to check the old radiator pressure cap for any signs of wear and tear. It's the little things that can make a big difference.
So if you’re serious about keeping your engine cool and running like a champ, the CSF Engine Coolant Radiator is definitely worth considering. It’s built for performance and durability, so you can hit the road with confidence.
