paai1993 Posted September 10, 2014 Share #1 Posted September 10, 2014 Hello to all. Question on this problem and wanted to see if any of you had this problem in the past. Radiator is leaking water and it appears to be from the base of the plastic pin mount at the top of the radiator. It leaks about 8 Oz. of coolant a week. I check it weekly. To me.....this plastic pin in the top of the radiator really seems like a bad design. Can this be fixed.... or do I need to look into a new OEM radiator. Does anyone know of a shop that builds custom ones? Thank You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to find another radiator on eBay for less then it would cost to buy new. Over the years I haven't seen a big demand for the 2ndGen...or 1stGen... radiators for that matter. Ergo...cheap!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took off the radiator and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the pin. Puzzling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
