940 Radiators

[T5Sweep]

I need a new rad for the 940 Turbo, seems to be a fair few options out there though!

Are A/C cars different to non-A/C cars? Manual/auto differences? I removed my air con if that makes any difference?

Also and recommendations to acquire one from would be smashing.

I think it's because of the aircon radiator/condenser and the intercooler that it makes a difference. I'd say the brackets are probably different too in order to space it back enough to fit all 3 in the front.

I got mine from Euro car parts.

A/C radiators are bigger. Auto have the integral transmission fluid cooler. If you buy from Volvo I think you only get the auto variant now with caps for the unused cooler line connections. I guess the main problem with using a smaller radiator on a car that used to have a/c is whether the fittings will be in the right place.

Just put a new radiator into Moomin. I'm on the other side of the planet from you, but I can confirm the radiator is the same physical size regardless of accessories.

The auto cars have a transmission cooler integrated into the radiator and have the associated fittings on the radiator. The trans cooler fittings are in two possible formats - male or female, depending on manufacture date/location. You need to know if yours is an inny or an outy before you order!

My 1996 940 LPT estate automatic needed a new radiator and I fitted a nissens one off ebay. Cant remember seller off hand. Could be buycarspares.

This was the seller and rad I used looking at purchase history for 2016.

Here are some, just enter you model year and see if compatible. Once found one that's compatible also do a search of the part number to find the ebay cheaper sellers and try google.

I also have a nissens rad in my 240 glt auto for the last 5 years and no issues.

My 940 has a nissens AC condenser from front then intercooler then nissens rad on my B230FK engine car.
