Detailed Description

TYC Radiator 2152 is engineered around the listed core dimensions and connection sizes to match the original cooling layout on the 1998 Subaru Forester and 1998 Subaru Impreza. The aluminum core, crossflow flow configuration, and integrated concentric transmission oil cooler support coolant and transmission-fluid heat exchange in one assembly. This makes it a practical OE-style radiator replacement for Subaru cooling system service where the original unit has leaked, clogged, or lost cooling efficiency.

This part cross-references Spectra Premium CU2152 and DENSO 221-9366 for the same application. For shoppers searching for a 1998 Subaru Forester radiator replacement or a 1998 Subaru Impreza radiator with transmission cooler, part number 2152 is the relevant reference.

What It Helps Address

  • Coolant leaks from a damaged or corroded radiator
  • Overheating caused by restricted coolant flow
  • Transmission fluid temperature management through the radiator cooler
  • Reduced cooling performance from aging internal tubes or fins
  • Replacement needs after impact or physical damage to the radiator core

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet hose diameters before installation: 1.57 in. inlet and 1.54 in. outlet. Confirm the vehicle uses the listed radiator configuration and transmission oil cooler routing before removal of the original unit. Inspect hoses, clamps, and coolant condition during replacement, and flush the cooling system if contamination is present. After installation, refill with the correct coolant mixture and check for leaks at the hose clamp connections and cooler fittings.

Quality Assurance

TYC supplies replacement cooling components built to match application-specific dimensions and connection styles for service use. Part number 2152 is listed for confirmed fitment on 1998 Subaru Forester, N/A, and 1998 Subaru Impreza, Primary.
