RE: [bmw] E30 Radiator



Will,

    Is the plastic cracked or is the seam leaking?  If it's the seam you can
try to crimp the area tighter with channel locks or something similar if
it's the plastic maybe try sanding the are and using some epoxy on it.  I
don't know the cost of a new one so I would check into that before you spend
lots of your time trying to repair.

Good luck!

My 90 325i has developed a leak in the radiator.

It is in the joint of the plastic side part to the Aluminum core just above
where the top hose connects.
I believe there is a rubber seal in there between the aluminum and plastic
parts, is it replaceable, is the radiator worth trying to fix or am I
flogging a dead horse?

Any advice is welcome.

Regards,

Will Hartje
