Meh Radiator
 
So im driving along subiaco and my heat gauge is going up, great, pull over and the green fluid has come out of the radiator, so i call RAC and he says there might be a crack in my radiator, and ill need it towed, i suggested subaru ozzy park. so how much would i be looking at if a new radiator is needed, and are subaru ozzy park able to do the repairs etc?
Oh how driving my housemates excel has made me feel quite shite.

Radiotor
 
i got problem with my radiotor as well... when the first time happen the hose was crack than i replace it, the second time did it again~crack beside the radiotor tank. so i replace a new tank and then the hose to the turbo crack :mad: So i when to subaru dealer and get a new hose for it.

Untill now still hasnt fix the problem, now the coolant water is boiling when i drive normal. If i push it hard the coolant water comes out from the battery side when u check it full anot, i took it to Natrad 2twice already:(. i hope tomorrow i take it back there, they wont charge me again :(
Wat u guys think is the problem with my coolant?

subaru quoted me about 1000 for a new radiator and labour, or 500 for a fix up job, natrad said 450 for a new one and labour :|

the radiator is about 700 retail for a genuine one PLUS labour, subaru charge 100 an hour

take the car to a radiator specialist and not subaru (save yourself an arse reaming) & get them to sus it out...9 times out of 10 it'll be a crack in one of the plastic tanks (~$100 per replacement tank trade price)
