New rad - fantastic - they are a pig to remove I would rather be changing the coolant than the rad any day of the week and that’s before manufacturing new loading lugs / pop rivet / resin after son induced accident. He is a weapons engineer now with HMRN - god help us !!
Personally Ray I would use the opportunity to give her a good flush and replace as Cooks says with a HOAT based coolant. You do not want head issues some months down the line when doing the task in hand should give yoo change out of fifty quid
The task is even more attractive if you are doing the water pump / matrix when yoo will lose fluid anyway. Genuine Volvo or Comma is what I use
