B7 RS4 leaking rads

[Guffy]

Have been losing small amounts of coolant recently so got the car checked and it turns out both auxiliary rads need replacing. The car has only done 22k miles and is 3 years old, seems a bit premature to me, especially as it's never been used to commute?

Anyone else had problems with S4/RS4 rads?

I've not seen it on the RS4 yet, But done loads on S4.

Should be lots of post on here about the S4 ones. I assumed "perhaps wrongly" the RS4 ones were a different spec as we have never change any.

We've done two or three pairs on RS4s - exactly the same as the S4 fault.
