attaching pic, so went to replace the top radiator hose today and noticed the one marked with a red arrow in the pic is all cracked and broken inside

i put the old hose back on just using a new clamp and refilled the radiator just to see if it would leak and i think it still is

just wondering any way around this or doesn in there mean a new radiatior ??http://a4.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/126/a72841ead88b4561a346416c99959f4d/l.jpg

you can get a top tank put in, but the cost of doing so would greatly out way getting a new rad from ebay, i bought one of these 12 months ago, and its still going strong, cost me $120 delivered brand new

was the ebay from radiator 121???

he has some for 108.00 including delivery

their are aluminiun core tho i thought the 3rd gens used copper core, is their much differance betweent he copper and aluminium

No 3rd gens are all aluminium core. You'd be able to see if it was copper core...

actually mine was fom Iquay, but it really dosent matter, as long as they are a top rated seller and have a positive feed back score of atleast 98%

i assume you have a TF, if so, then yes, the one in the link will fit, just make sure its for auto

arived and fitted today with new hoses and hose clips..... the flat head screwdriver kind not the genuine stole skin of 4 knuckles kind

cheers mal and thanks for the free box, the 1 yr old loves it lol
