new rad for the sag, whats the damage...

[Mike82]

i have a leaky rag on my poorly sagaris... i'm guessing this wont be coverd under the warranty so anyone had similar and is it an easy job? seems like there's a fair bit to come out before the rad!? i'm guessing its one of those labour intesive jobies that starts adding up.

hopefully not too long before i'm back smiling again

If all the S6 cars are the same, Castle supplied and fitted my alloy rad on the Tam for just under £600 all in. IIRC the rad was about £370

Yes, considering its better than the rad TVR fitted so it runs cooler and is lighter. Also for me it meant I did not have to pay for the coolant to be changed at service time as it was done with the rad so this saved me about £40

Ideal opportunity to upgrade to some nice silicone hoses!
