CSF 3408 Radiator

OE-Style Cooling for Kia Rondo

This CSF radiator is built for 2007-2012 Kia Rondo applications with an OE-style plastic tank and aluminum core design. Part number 3408 is engineered for direct-fit cooling system service where the original radiator has aged, leaked, or lost efficiency.

The CSF 1 Row Plastic Tank Aluminum Core line focuses on factory-style construction with performance validation in controlled testing. For Kia Rondo owners searching for a replacement radiator that matches the original layout, CSF 3408 provides a cross-flow configuration with the correct inlet and outlet placement.
