Need Opinions on Cleaning Radiators

[Aronis]

I was told by dealer to POWERWASH with a pressure washer the radiators for the Engine and Transmission!

Mine were well caked with road salt and sand!

I am a bit concerned that such pressure could damage the radiator!

Opinions?

Aronis,
I have done mine on previous vehicles without any problems.
Just make sure you dont bring the nozzle too close to the fins, a foot and a half distance maybe even slightly more and you wont damage anything. Dont shoot too much force too close and everything will be OK.
I plan on doing mine this spring as well.
Taking the bumper and cover is a must.

I am not sure what you mean there!

Remove the Bumper Cover?

You should take the front bumper of as well as the belly pan to get better access to all radiators. Taking the front bumper off isnt hard. I will be doing mine probably in a month or so and will take pictures.
It might be easier for me as a have a lift, dont know if you do. Judging from your previous posts you are very knowledgable mechanicaly with these cars and have done a lot with them. I have faith in you and dont fight the force:D !
