  • Radiator replacement

    Noticed a couple of drops of coolant on the undertray the other day.Investigation by Paul Muller and myself determined a leak from the lower passenger's side corner.Went to Mcgraths on Friday,they pressure tested it on the spot,and ordered a new one.Had it fitted today and ready by 2pm.
    Nice to have a good result from a dealer rather than the usual complaints.
    Cheers

    Yeah Len I've had mine replaced now as well Anyone else? Along with the two oxygen sensors, least we're getting our moneys worth from the warranty

              Guess that comes down to your definition of the word 'common'. We've had what ... three / four on here? I think we've had a lot more with gearbox faults and turbo bolt faults.

              Mt car will be 2 yrs old next month (no ... no party) and really the only thing I'll have had done under warranty is the aircon compressor changed.

                Yeah I wouldn't call it common either. I reckon you'll also get a higher concentration of problems here on the forum based on mods and track days and hard driven cruises.

                  Hoyhoy.
                  All I've had is a split in a small vacuum hose & thats it.
                  But as of now, I have that many mods it doesn't matter any more.

                      haha I'm in the same boat.

                      The only warranty I'd have is on interior pieces and paint I'd say.

                      If something breaks something better will replace it.
