My 1998 V6 24v Exclusive has been using coolant since i started using the car now.

Only since it's getting colder am I really starting to hate filling it with coolant now. I decided to have a look today and noticed that the crossmember underneath the radiator is all damp and corroded and there's a bit wet spot on the radiator itself.

Does anyone know where the best place to source a radiator from is?

Thanks

David.

Hi David, i got one for my 2000 2.1 td from "northern radiator group" a couple of years back, brand new £59 - i'm sure they are probably twice that now.

I ordered one a couple of weeks ago from Aaron radiators for next day delivery. After 3 days it hadnt turned up so got a refund. They told me that because of where I live in Scotland they could not guarantee any delivery in less than 3 days
I then contacted Advance Radiators in Newcastle upon Tyne at 3.pm and they said yes but it would need to come from Germany but that I would have it next day.
I couldn't believe this but was desperate so I ordered it.

Next morning the one I had ordered from Aaron, which they said had been lost in transit, arrived so I just fitted it. That afternoon the one from Advance and shipped from Germany arrived and they kindly accepted that I could return it.

Amazing, can't get delivery witin 3 days from the UK but can get one from Germany in 24 hours. Cost was £109 from Aaron and £124 from Advance and that includes carriage. Both company's were very helpful

Hi David

You could try your local ASP people as they have had a few rads on ebay recently at fairly competitive prices for the 2.5 ones. Will take a look for V6 ones next time I check ebay.
