Spectra Premium CU2765 radiator for the 2004-2008 Chevrolet Malibu 4-cylinder 2.2L carries engine coolant through its core to shed heat from the engine. The structure and design are built to the same durability and expectations as the original.
A coolant leak at the core or tanks, an engine that runs hotter than normal, or a coolant level that keeps dropping (check it only with the engine cool) can mean the radiator needs replacing. With the engine off and cool, look for wet spots, crusted coolant or cracked plastic tanks. Hoses and clamps can leak too, so find the source before you replace it.
This radiator is a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2008 Chevrolet Malibu 4-cylinder 2.2L, which takes one.
