UK MY97 Radiator
DAMN!
On my way home tonight my temp gauge started to rise, and a splash hit the windscreen and a puff of steam escaped from my offside wing, I stopped and popped the bonnet and found a steaming leak pissing out of the far left hand side of my radiator.
There is a split in the radiator! I'm not sure weather this part is replaceable or I require a full radiator replacement.
Please can anyone help me source the replacement part and let me know how to fit the part. Or if it's a job for the garage!
here's a couple of pictures of the split http://andijones.com/gallery/2006-02-16-split-radiator
while you are there, check out my pictures from the Monte Carlo Rally

You will have no problem doing it yourself.
Took me about an hour in all. Nothing to really go wrong.
Only tip I would give is to undo the bottom pipe at the other end to the rad -from underneath the car - then remove the radiator with it attatched if you need to.
It can be difficult to get at the end attatched to the rad unless you have hands the size of a five year old.
