Well, i just brought me a radiator... so ill be expecting it saturday? or sometime next week.

Just wonderin, if anyone can help me with this... (putting in new radiator)
Ive PM'd Aaron, who recently did mine... but hes been a lil busy with new job etc..

From what i saw with aaron when he did mine, it seemed straight forward... didnt take very long... 2hr max... plus chit chat etc!!! as you do...
I have the stuff. ie coolant. may need to get another bottle... but ill sort that. and i have no tools.... :(

What do ya think?...

As Jeremy said, lots on at the moment sorry, especially any weekend that appears to be fine weather............whenever that might be......../pan

If you have an undercover venue to do this or access to one on a wet weekend day, then I could be able to help and have tools as well. :scholar:

Hope that helps a bit..................:speechles

260PS if auto, 280PS if manual. 280PS = 206kW. Don't know exactly how much 260PS is...
