Connecting Pipe Replacement
- Drain the engine coolant. See «Coolant Replacement»(ref-290817-S11744345252008072200000) .
- Remove the intake manifold. See «REMOVAL»(ref-360066-S08435445072010042600000) .
- Disconnect the heater hose (A) and the water bypass hose (B), then remove the connecting pipe mounting bolts (C), then remove the connecting pipe.
- Install the connecting pipe with a new O-ring (E), then connect the heater hose and the water bypass hose.
- Install the intake manifold. See «INSTALLATION»(ref-360066-S07298263282010042600000) .
- Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed the air from the cooling system with the heater calve open. See step 7 in «Coolant Replacement»(ref-290817-S11744345252008072200000) .
- Clean up any spilled engine coolant.

- Do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see «DISCONNECTION»(ref-290830-S11729868702009102900000) ).
- Drain the engine coolant (see «COOLANT REPLACEMENT»(ref-290817-S11744345252008072200000) ).
- Remove the front grille cover.
- Disconnect the fan motor connectors (A) and engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor 2 connector (B), and the A/C compressor clutch connector (C), then remove the harness clamps (D).
- Remove the upper brackets and cushions (A), then remove the bulkhead (B).
- A/T model: Remove the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) cooler hoses (see «ATF COOLER HOSE REPLACEMENT»(ref-355247-S40435044132010012100000) ).
- Remove the upper radiator hose and lower radiator hose from the radiator, then pull up the radiator.
- Remove the fan shroud assemblies and other parts from the radiator.
- Install the radiator in the reverse order of removal. Make sure the upper and lower cushions are set securely.
- Install the bulkhead in the reverse order of removal. Apply touch-up paint to the bulkhead mounting bolts.
- Do the battery terminal reconnection procedure (see «RECONNECTION»(ref-290830-S41579678952009102900000) ).
- Refill the transmission with ATF. See «ATF REPLACEMENT.»(ref-360064-S06757241342010042600000)
- Fill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed the air from the cooling system with the heater valve open (see step 10 on «COOLANT REPLACEMENT»(ref-290817-S11744345252008072200000) ).
- Clean up any spilled engine coolant.
