NOT FIT Radiator

This part will NOT fit Volkswagen CC 2010. The connectors on the heater core are too short and don't reach the connectors in the car.

Pros
  • Number of high density fins for maximum heat dissipation
Cons
  • Lot

NOT SUITABLE for engine cooling and air conditioning

This part will NOT fit the 2010 Volkswagen CC. The plugs on the heater core are too short and don't reach the plugs in the car.

Pros
  • Carefully crafted tanks for strength and durability
Cons
  • Good but not great

It fits my 2012 VW CC Sport but WOW! it is very difficult to install.

As reported by other users. It looks like the 1/4" link pipe is too short, but it really isn't. I compared this part to an official VW part (which costs three times as much) and found that they are identical. very strong hands) to pass. You can't use tools (like pliers or wrenches) as this is an aluminum fitting (and it bends/deforms quickly). It only worked for me after inserting the core fully (in its final place) and then squeezing the fittings together very, very, very hard. Be sure to useโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Adjustable tube position for a secure body fit
Cons
  • Compatibility

Poor fit, old part number

2014 Passat TDI. The plastic pieces had to be removed to fit the slot it goes in. O-rings will not stay in groove causing them to be sheared off when attempting installation. In this case, the joint will not seat properly and the O-rings will become unusable. Unsuccessful attempt to use the old o-ring (last try). After several disassemblies and installations, one of the pipes came loose at the soldering point on the heating heat exchanger. It's not a slip joint like you see with the plumbingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Unit leak tested to ensure product quality when installed
Cons
  • Protection
