Detailed Description
CSF 3554 is a direct-fit radiator designed around OE-style packaging for select Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne, and Volkswagen Touareg models. The aluminum core helps transfer heat efficiently, while the plastic tank construction follows the factory-style layout used in many original cooling systems. This radiator uses a cross-flow design with quick-connect inlet and outlet pipe connections for the specified applications.
This part cross-references APDI 8012756 and Global Parts Distributors LLC 2756 for the same application. It is a practical replacement choice when servicing a leaking, restricted, or damaged radiator on a 2007-2015 Audi Q7, 2008-2010 Porsche Cayenne, or 2004-2010 Volkswagen Touareg.

Vehicle Fitment
- Fits 2007-2015 Audi Q7, N/A
- Fits 2007-2010 Audi Q7, N/A, w/o Tow Package
- Fits 2008-2010 Porsche Cayenne, N/A
- Fits 2003-2006 Porsche Cayenne, N/A
- Fits 2004-2010 Volkswagen Touareg, N/A
Common Problems This Radiator Can Address
- Coolant leaks from a cracked or aging radiator tank
- Overheating caused by reduced heat transfer through the core
- Restricted coolant flow from internal buildup or corrosion
- Damage from road debris, vibration, or age-related wear
- Cooling system service needs on OE-style replacement applications
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify radiator dimensions, inlet and outlet orientation, and connection style before installation. This unit uses a left-side inlet and right-side outlet with quick-connect pipe fittings, so matching the original cooling system layout is important. The radiator is listed without a cap, and fitment should be confirmed against the vehicle’s equipment level, including tow package differences on applicable Audi Q7 models.
Quality Assurance
CSF has produced radiators for more than 50 years and supplies a broad catalog of OE-style cooling components for many vehicle platforms. The brand notes ISO/TSO-certified manufacturing and laboratory testing methods used to validate cooling performance.
