Title: MkII 8v GTI leaking radiator
Post by: Dream Police on 16 August 2003, 17:24

My GTI has a coolant leak which seems to be coming from the radiator somewhere. All the hoses seem ok. My trusty Haynes manual makes it look pretty easy to change the radiator. Any advice from anyone who has done this would be gratefully received as would advice about where to find a replacement rad at a cheap price.
