Radiator problem

Fullminator · 11-14-2016, 05:47 PM

After much work, I finally have the radiator/AC condenser out of the car. I have a nice pile of parts and nuts and bolts to go back. Found the radiator to be an aftermarket CSF brand, triple bypass whizbang unit. Took it to a local radiator shop. They leak tested it for free. It has failed all along the passenger side. I also found out it isn't even two years old. I cant get anyone at CSF to talk to me. They insist I go to the dealer where it was purchased. Unfortunately I didn't buy it, the previous owner did. New radiator is in the $500-600 range. I don't have a lot of confidence in the after market/high performance diatribe. I also understand the original radiator/cooling system was not really up to the job either. What's a poor sap to do?
