Vauxhall Radiator Compatability !?
« on: 15 November 2006, 10:22:40 »

At work with no " The Book" or EPC....

I have a radiator from a 2.5 v6 cdx auto with air con. Removed and in good order.

Ii need a radiator for a 2.6 sri v6 manual with air con VECTRA.

This is the same engine y26se as facelift omegas.

So the question is would a radiator from a pre facelift 2.5 omega fit a post facelift 2.6

Got my doubts but may be ok as a temp fix if there the same. :-/

I would assume if they have the same dimensions and mounting points it would work, but the only way I guess is to compare them side by side.

Not unless it can be confirmed some other easier way

Just my tuppence worth :y

Vectra one by the way is 52479100

Its very rare for modern rads to be interchangeable betweeen models because the front end shapes are so different.

Note also, the above info should copy nicely into a price section :y

Never thought of the shape difference affecting things :-[ I always assumed that similar sized engines would have very similar rads etc. learn something new as they say.
