In Order to allow equitable parts availability to all participating dealers, please limit your initial parts order to not exceed 3% of dealership population. This is an inital order recommendation only, and the ultimate responsibility for ordering the total number of parts needed to satisfy the program lies with the dealer. |
ACTION REQUIRED
Inspect all 230-2966 Radiator Assemblies and 210-8164 Radiator Groups (complete cooling package) that are in stock. |
Replace the radiator core with an improved core, manufactured after 15th March 2007 or 2007 11th week. This date can be found on the radiator top tank or on a sticker on the frame (refer to images below). If the 230-2966 Radiator Core Assembly has been bought as a spare part, the build date can be seen on the sticker (sticker is actually giving production week and year; Mar15th2007 = 11/2007). Follow the appropriate disassembly and assembly instructions for your affected product. |
