Post #1

these last few days i have noticed that my rad has been using a little coolant Unsure

i have checked for the signs of headgasket faliure,and all is well..and also checked footwell for damp or water and all's fine Smile

so as i checked the rad i found to my surprise its f##ked....as there are just about no fins in 3/4 of the dam thing LOL

then i noticed a date stamp on top of it saying 18/02/2000 LOL

so you could say it was the factory fitted rad!!
so i am after a new one with the push in hose with wire clip.....what one should i go for Dunno

naah, its the the Nissens brand.

Ordonez (which is the o.e brand typically) Hella and Valeo are fine too.

Another vote for the Nissens rad. Yes

It seems to keep the engine slightly cooler than what the standard Ordonez one used to and it has also stayed nice and shiny. Cool

I can't believe you've sold quite so many Carl, that's mental!

£134 delivered from ECP a few weeks ago when they had that discount running.

Really? Is that a genuine one (Ordonez) from Pug or a Nissens?

I bought a Nissens and pretty sure I didn't receive a new o-ring with it...
