If you're looking to keep your engine cool and running smoothly, you can't go wrong with a CSF radiator. These guys know their stuff, and they've been making radiators for over 50 years. With more than 3,200 different models, chances are they've got the right fit for your ride, whether it’s an Acura or a Volkswagen. Seriously, they've got the bases covered.
So, what sets CSF apart? For starters, their radiators are built to last. They use OEM-specified plastic tank-aluminum core construction, which means you're getting a solid piece of engineering. The tanks are made from virgin-grade engineered plastic resins that are glass-filled for extra strength and durability. No cheap materials here! Plus, the gaskets are made from special-grade EPDM rubber, so they can handle extreme temperatures—up to -120°F. That's some serious resilience.
The fins, which are the heart of the radiator, feature a high-performance multi-louvered design. This helps to maximize cooling efficiency, ensuring your engine stays at the right temperature even under heavy loads. And just to give you peace of mind, every radiator is leak tested before it leaves the factory, holding up to 150% of the operating pressure. They don’t mess around when it comes to quality control.
Now for the specs: this downflow radiator has a single row with a core length of 16 3/4", a width of 30 3/8", and a thickness of 7/8". It’s made of aluminum, which is lightweight yet effective for heat dissipation. Inlet and outlet locations are pretty straightforward too—upper driver side and lower driver side, with inlet and outlet diameters of 1 5/16" and 1 1/4" respectively. Plus, it includes a high-efficiency oil cooler that measures 14 3/4".
For fitment, this radiator is designed specifically for the Acura TL models from 2009 to 2014. If you’re rolling in one of those, you’re in luck! Just a quick tip: when you’re swapping out your radiator, don’t forget to check your old pressure cap for any signs of wear. And remember to use a Micro, 16 psi cap for optimal performance.
In short, if you want a radiator that’s built tough and designed to keep your engine cool, CSF is the way to go. Trust me, your car will thank you!
