I recently replaced the radiator on my 2002 Toyota 4Runner and used a Denso replacement part. It looks identical to the original.
I'd stick with a new Denso if you want to replace yours.
i used a denso radiator on a benz gle43. Worked out pretty well. I mean they are an oem supplier for many manufacturers.
Denso and other OEM for me. When insurance wanted to throw Napa parts at my radiator replacement destroyed by a napping squirrel in the fan assy, I ponied up the difference to go with the Denso and mechanic confirmed it was a solid choice.
Aisin water pump, Mitsuboshi or Bando belts, and replace the radiator as a preventative measure with a Denso unit.
I replaced mine at 129k miles due to a small leak in the bottom of the radiator. I purchased an OEM Denso one on Amazon for 220 and it's been working great, no issues with trans temp as well.
I recently did a timing belt job on my is300 and now the car feels weird. I replaced oe denso radiator. The first startup was very rough. After some tinkering with the car by letting it idle for a while, reving it slightly, the car seems to be alright with no check engine light or any missfire codes. However I do feel like the engine vibrates just ever so slightly more than it used to. A barely noticeable difference but I feel like something is not right. The car now also has weird cold starts. The engine only revs up to a 1000rpm and then goes down from there, where it usually would rev up to 1500-1800rpm on cold starts.
'07 V6 SR5 I replaced my leaking rad with a Denso four years ago and it's been absolutely rock solid. **NOTE** I'm not sure if this is still the case but some Denso rads have a couple little notches cut into the sides which are sometimes mistaken for damage as they are not neatly done (literally looks like someone just tapped it with a grinder). These notches are to allow the rad to expand a bit when the metal heats. They are necessary and part of the design even though they sure *look* like damage.
I have a denso radiator on my 03 4th gen. I changed my radiator for a denso one after it started leaking 5 years ago. It's been over 50k miles and it's going strong.
I put a Denso in my ‘04 V8 about five years ago, replacing the original that had around 200k on it. No problems so far.
