well i am going to get a new one old one is leaking and not in the best condition and i think its blocked..
well anyway when i took the hoses off there is a heap of white build up of some sort.. what is it and will a radiator flush help get rid of it, as i would think there would be build up in the block so before i replace the hoses and radiator and water pump i wanna try and clean in there. lastly which radiator should i get any of the ebay ones ok? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... B:EF:US:11 This one claims a (2 YEAR / 50000 KLM WARRANTY) http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... B:EF:US:11 |

Radiators from REPCO etc aren't much more expensive....I'd get one from them cos if there is a problem it's not as big a hassle to get the problem fixed. As for the white stuff generally thats from incorrect or no coolant being used. Put some radiator flush through and run for a week or so with just straight water then drain and put good quality (and the correct amount of) coolant in.

there is a bloke on ebay in adelaide, the radiator warehouse i think he calls himself. i got a adrad 1 from him for $170 i think it was. it has 1 piece end tanks so it shouldnt split like factory 1s. try him he was very helpful and cheap postage.

Why do you pay twice the amount?
I use Nulon flush, works great

Supply only!! or Supply and fitted? If thats just too supply you are definitely getting ripped. A mate had a new one fitted, system flushed & new coolant for $330.
