I ordered one, they ran my vin number and said i do not have the tow package from a1auto. i am not sure if i do or not but i have the little tranmission cooler on the left side. I do not have a hitch mounted on the back so i have no clue. Is there a site to tell if i have the tow package or not?

The tow-package info should be either in your VIN or your model number badge (I think it's on the passenger door sill). The difference in size of the tow radiator and the regular one are minimal. The tow radiator could be extra precaution if you're towing max capacities and running the A/C, but like I said, I don't tow anything so I went with the standard radiator as the tow-package radiator was an expensive OEM-only item. I've experienced no ill effects in the 10k miles since.
Do you have the AWD? I got my rad in today i compared them and the after market is just a bit thinner. So you running the ac and everything no issues?

Yes, I have all options and AWD. I don't think there's an option mine doesn't have. No problems with the aftermarket no-tow radiator. You could probably tow with the aftermarket radiator too. I'd imagine the tow radiator is just extra insurance for heavy towing.

Hi. I’m wondering if anyone has solution to this. My grandpa has the radiator with the special sensor and will not spend that much money for a new one. I was wondering how you can bypass the sensor. I’ve read it’s difficult but I’m sure someone has figure it out. If any one has any insight or ideas that would be great. Thank you
