B3 Coupe Radiator
 

My brothers B3 Coupe 2.3E 5 pot 10 valve has sprung a leak. He will be checking it out tommorrow but suspects it's the rad. So, just in case does anyone have a suitable radiator.

Rodders try Mike (Audibits2) on eBay or his mobile

he is in Lockerbie, have you tried radweld ? Or checked the hoses ?

As I said Grant will be checking things out tommorrow, he believes the rad has rusted away at the bottom end so it's definitely beyond Radweld.

try these :tup: pritty cheap

just put in the details :tup:

I have plenty of decent rads, I always weigh in the rotten ones (which are always the alloy rads) so any I have are good water tight and no rotten flanges. Even better I think I have a couple of copper ones but need to check. I'd need to know if he has the aux rad or not.

£25 to you!

The problem with these rads is almost always the same, the lower tank holding flange rots away. I once repaired one with epoxy as an emergency get me home job and it worked ok but you'd have been a brave man to have tried to run with it long term as once they start to leak they drain the entire engine/rad/header tank very quickly indeed!

Thanks Mate, just waiting for Grant to get in touch with the details : Part number/size etc then I'll PM you. :tup:

Don't need either of those mate they are all the same.

Just literally need to know if his has the aux rad or not. That's the only difference on 5 cyl rads.

Thanks for the info and offer but Grant has managed to repair the problem. Coupe now back on the road and being prepped for AITP.

.Have a new rad bought in error for a 1985 Audi 90CD. E.mail dimensions to rghardon43@hotmail.co.uk and if OK will arrange delivery.
Regards Bob.
