Radiator is f**ked. Where to get new one? Use K-Seal/Radweld temp?

    We have used k seal on some of the turbo busa,s at work. I have seen blocked water ways with it. I think it's best just replace old unit with a new one . I have just replaced my rad on the daily 2.3e,. Part number Nis60442 from motor parts direct £107.98. I also did the thermostat as i was draining the coolant. Part number ftr019 £14.03. One thing I would say is get a new fixing rubber damper on the bottom off rad your be happy you did. Hope this helps. Good luck kind regards Lynn.

      Thanks Lynn. I'll send them an email because the website shows that part as out of stock and if I search by vehicle and narrow it down to mine it also shows no options.

      I just did the thermostat recently so it's a PITA that I'm going to end up doing the radiator separately

          Thanks Lynn, I really appreciate it. If I can't find the p/n for the mount I might hassle you to see if you can dig it out

            GSF website doesn't list it but give them a phone and they should be able to help. I'll dig out my receipt later to find the part number

            Edit: Turns out i just emailed them asking for an S2 main radiator, then they just sent me a paypal invoice so i don't have the part number to hand. £159 delivered for a genuine Behr back in 2014

              Nice one, thanks. Good old fashioned "just ask them" approach eh? That might catch on
