Hilux N70 Radiator Selection: Check the Automatic-Transmission Connections

When selecting the listed Hilux N70 radiator, confirm the automatic transmission as well as the KUN model code and diesel engine. The example here is the KUN16/KUN26 3.0L 1KD-FTV turbo-diesel automatic application within 03/2005–03/2015.

A manual, petrol or later GUN-series application is outside this product’s stated scope. A broad “Hilux radiator” title should not override those distinctions.

Compare the cooler fittings with the original

The N70 3.0L automatic radiator is referenced to 16400-0L130. Its configuration includes the transmission-cooler connections shown in the product views.

Check the original reference, hose outlets, side brackets, mounting points and cooler fittings together. A similar core or a matching overall outline does not resolve an incompatible connection arrangement.

Read the complete assembly photograph

View from the linked product gallery. Yellow plugs shown in the photographs are shipping protectors.

Use the mounting brackets and hose outlets as orientation points when comparing views. The yellow protectors are packaging-related features, not evidence of an additional electrical function. Refer to the actual fitting and the installer’s handling instructions.

If a fitting is obscured in a photograph, ask for a clearer view. Avoid selecting a different configuration on the assumption that its ports or brackets can be altered to match.

Confirm what comes with the radiator

The selected package is the radiator assembly only. Fans, shroud, hoses and a separate radiator cap are not included. Check the workshop’s parts list so those items are not assumed to arrive with the core assembly.

A complete cooling pack containing other components is a different package comparison. Likewise, this radiator’s build scope should not be transferred to every other part sold for an N70.

Make the vehicle check specific

The Toyota catalogue reference lookup for 16400-0L130 supports the radiator identity. The linked PFA product retains the specified Australian engine, transmission and build scope.

Send the VIN, build month, KUN code, engine and gearbox details, original reference and accessible connection photographs for confirmation. Mention previous engine, gearbox or cooling-system modifications. The workshop should identify the cooling fault and service requirements separately; this guide does not supply a filling or repair procedure.
