This is an excellent video. No infuriating extra fluff, just what is needed.
Thanks very much.
Como quitar el betilador del radiador de este tipo de carros
This is a pretty straight forward install, but glad Mishimoto took the time to help everyone go through the complete process!
One thing that is kind of humorous is that someone would upgrade the radiator, but not the FMIC. If you have the OEM FMIC, you are NOT tracking or driving your car hard at all. It cant handle few back to back hard pulls let alone pushing it in competition scenarios.
You also do not need the shutters or half the bulky plastics on the crash bar. In fact, once you go with an aftermarket intercooler, you cannot use those things anyways and while you're in there, you might as well upgrade the factory upper/lower coolant hoses to silicone ones.
I know this is an old video and this car in the video is pristine, but anyone upgrading this with a used ST (they're all used now) this is a great upgrade if you drive hard or track your car. FYI those coolant hose connectors are a PITA to remove in many cases simply because they're stuck on after years of use. Once the clip is out, just be careful and work them off with a good amount of force. When you go to refill the coolant, the traditional way works but you have a very good chance of introducing a lot of bubbles. It may benefit you to invest in something similar to this tool:

Thanks for the comment! Some of these vehicles are on the "older" side and will benefit from a new radiator after close to 10 years of use :)
Thanks for the video. Removing the "quick release" hoses is not easy.
If anyone's struggling to get the Rad hoses back on, use a heat gun or a hair dryer to warm the hose connector up then push on. Took me hours of trying and only 30 seconda with a heat gun to get them on
Old vehicle 30min vs new 3hr
I don't have access to a lift, so I was wondering how high will I need to get the car with a jack and jack stands in order to remove the old and install the new radiator?
This videos saved me $900.00. Thank you
Glad we could help! If you ever need advice, feel free to reach out to our Support team at 302-762-4501!
I wanna replace a leaking radiator in a 2012 Focus Titanium sedan with an OEM radiator. Is this installation guide largely the same? Or is the ST significantly different?
HI Branden! This product is for the 2013+ Focus ST - for your 2012 Focus, you'd want to consider our OEM replacement radiator which you can view here: www.mishimoto.com/2012-2015-ford-focus-replacement-radiator.html - Installation would be the same as for your OEM radiator, as this designed to OEM specs! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Thank you so much. You have the only guide on the internet for the removal and installation of a radiator for the third generation Focus. This is a very high quality video, and you do a great job showing how to install your products.
There are other aftermarket radiators that state they are triple flow units. Is this radiator also like that?
This is a 2 row core.
Thanks for the fast response! Customer service seems pretty damn good at mishimoto! I plan on getting this. Intercooler already ordered.
Does anyone know if the focus st radiator will fit the 13-16 fusion 2.0 ecoboost?
We do not show that this is compatible with the Fusion. Sorry!
@@mishimoto you guys should consider designing one.
@@iguardwisconsinberry8830 You can look to see if a part will match by looking up the Ford OEM part number. If it matches between the ST and Fusion or any other Ford vehicle, then you know it will fit.
The part numbers are different. It will not fit.
Is this similar for the mk3 RS?
The install process will be similar but the radiator itself is not.
Need one for the escape 2.0 ecoboost👌🏼
Hello Japan8o8. While we do not currently manufacture a direct fit unit for the Escape w/ 2.0 ecoboost, I'd be happy to submit a new product suggestion on your behalf. If you'd like, I could attach your email to the form if you'd like to be kept up to date.
Mishimoto Automotive
That would be awesome, definitely add me to that list and lmk if you guys ever do come up with something
Hey Japan8o8. Send me a DM with your email address. I'd be happy to keep you in the loop :).
Why can't I find a video line this for the Ford Focus 2013 SE?
We unfortunately don't make a radiator for the SE model
Will theses fit se titanium?
This is not designed to fit the non-turbo models. Sorry!
Thanks
Damn that front end has been scraping real bad, that’s gonna rust in the future
it wont rust its not metal
Me trying to pay attention like “👁👄👁”
Is 250$ for labor fair ?
This can vary greatly depending on the shop or person.
After watching this video, heck yeah. $250 seems like a helluva deal for what is probably a two to four hour job for the home tech.
They are coming to my home
Yes sir so I’m buying the part and he will come do it for 250$ might be able to talk him down to 200$
@@gregsmith3486 bruh $250 is already outrageously cheap labor
Glad I watched this. I almost shot myself in the foot. Was gonna do this job for 120$ 😳 yikes!
lol difficulty should be a 2
I'm happy you think so! I need you to work on my car nice n cheap lol
Right? It's a radiator bolt and unbolt ... and all this stuff is easy to remove and re-install on the ST.
Though, dealing with fluids and pipes and the condensor definitely are what bumped the rating.
@@ADDwithJTC I could definitely be your not so cheap mechanic lol
@@orangejjay I was a Ford tech that’s why I commented this lol but it’s fairly easy
It was my first time doing it so it was difficult but yea I can see being a Ford mechanic and doing more than once would make it easy lol
But then I couldn't afford you so I'll just keep throwing wrenches n having my neighbors think I have tourettes syndrome 🤣🤣🤣
must have a lady driver with Those scrathes
No wonder why american car companys suck. This is complete BS. All day job ? My nissan took 30 min to change radiator
This car was actually designed in Germany which didn't help because German cars are the worst to work on lol took 15 minutes to change the radiator in my 86 GT Mustang. They don't make em like they used to.
I hear ya bro my subaru sti hatchback 2010 is 30 mins
