joys of the bloody chamade , just came back from hols and found out my coolant is missing ,had to top it up about 2 litres to find out where it leaks from . its drips from the radiator and that also explains no pressure building up in the system 2 weeks ago when i filled it up with new coolant .
i will make some further inspections to make sure its the radiator itself but not the side of the top hose or the bleed screw .
what happens if its the radiator itself ? are brand new rads available in motor factors ????? are they cheap ? or can the rads be refurbished by welding etc |

you can get it re-cored or you can just buy a new rad.
60 quid or something from gsf. |
