Re: Leaky rad
I have to say the quality of users on this site is amazing.
Thank you very much for your kind offer Crap Tartan but I have just found someone on the island willing to do exactly the same thing.
Hopefully mine can be repaired while I`m away so I can give the borrowed one back.
Cheers everyone.

Re: Leaky rad
no worries, its there should it be needed.
I got my original repaired by GMX radiators in Essex, fast turnaround, well packaged and been fine ever since (4 years).

Re: Leaky rad
Cheers CT. I think that's where I`m gonna send mine.
From the (limited) research I have had time to do they seem to keep coming back up to the top of the list.

Is it really Miz ?
Would you believe it.
What are the chances of me finding out about your cousins company before you tell me.

Re: Leaky rad
Well I had no idea about the family connection either!
All i can say was at the time they gave the most positive response and were helpful.
i was more than pleased with the result and the price.
and for Shed, its only the horns that manage to keep my halo in place and i`m sure we would all do the same for a fellow bro`
I was just in the fortunate position of having a spare.........................

Re: Leaky rad
My radiator sprung a leak after my other half brought it home from the dealers. It went back on a breakdown truck The dealers had it repaired under warranty by a 'professional' and it sprang more leaks on its return.
So, I used a reference thread from here with a post by Carnivore, that contained the amount of radweld to use.
Tiz been 'fixed' by me for three years
