Alright lads looking for a bit of advice, ive got a radiator leak on my glanza its a hairline split right on the top beside the cap. ive tried using that leak fix stuff but had no joy with it. is there stronger stuff that would work or would it be better to get it welded? any help is appreciated.

I had a crack on mine in the same place and got a new one.

Be careful with the camskill ones though, the bottom hose on the new one I got was slightly left of where it usually is and almost creates a kink in the pipe by the thermostat housing.

Just about got away with it, but its one of those niggles that annoys you because its not perfect.

Ive never had any issues like that and ive just bought cheap ebay rads. Have all been identical!

I reckon they sent me one with the ABS coolant lines in as it had two blocked off outlets on each side of the radiator. Apart from that and the bottom oulet it was identical to my old stock one.
