Hey All,

Well after a really close inspection.. it turns out that my radiator is leaking slightly from who knows where.. just wondering if there are any recommendations on someone who can replace a Forester radiator.. and check the rest of the cooling system. The car hasn't heated up and it's only lost around .5 L of coolant in the last 3 weeks, so it's not urgent.

GD WRX model rad fit I think. China Spec all alloy rad can be bought for $250-$300.

I've got access to a hoist and full garage.. I might replace it myself, just wondering who I could get to check it all out first though. I don't want to replace it if it's not the thing leaking. I can't find the actual leak.

get the radiator out and send it away to AAT/ATT (i think) radiators and they can service it and fix it up for you. cheaper than replacing it.

if its a stock radiator throw it away its going to break again. new aftermarket radiators are something we get a call on everyday. the radiators from the GD cars really do fall apart.

Thanks for the tip ImportImage.. I'll get an aftermarket unit through a mate :-D
