Toyota Condor Cooling

Condor cooling is simple: belt-driven water pump, conventional thermostat, cross-flow radiator, mechanical cooling fan with viscous clutch on most variants. No electric radiator fan complexity on the early Y-series petrols, though the 3L diesel uses a thermostatically-controlled electric fan on some late variants. Our toyota condor cooling stock covers radiators, water pumps, thermostats, radiator fans, radiator hoses and coolant (standard long-life antifreeze) across the range.

Water pumps on 2Y, 3Y and 4Y Condors commonly weep or whine at 120,000+ km — we sell them new from JHB at R480-R1,100 and used from CPT donors at R220-R550. Thermostats stick on Condors that run short urban trips — cheap R180-R420 replacements from the JHB depot. Radiators on 20-plus-year-old Condors are usually the original unit, and they clog or develop pinhole leaks — budget R1,800-R3,500 for a new aftermarket replacement, or R900-R2,000 for a tested used OEM pull. Coolant hoses perish in SA heat; replace the upper and lower as a set whenever you service the cooling system.
