General Civic Talk - do i need a new radiator?

when i rev my civic it leaks antifreeze from the bottem of the radiator.I looked at the section were it was leeking from and its rusted.do i need a new one and if so what sould i get? thanks

I would plan on getting a new radiator. Rust with water leaking from it is a pretty good sign that your radiator is just about done.

Yep,........... time to get a new one

yeppppp, friend had same problem, time for new radiator, might as well change the thermostat while ur in their

lmao that kinda suxs lol i just woke up one morn took a drive and antifreez started coming out at least its not such a hard fix.

My rad cracked at the top about a week ago (crappy plastic) I now have to fill it with water 2 times a day. I got a new 2" thick all aluminum rad in the mail. No more plastic=no more cracks

check all the hoses as well (of course)



.........i wish i had an all nice and polished thick core aluminum radiator (lol)
