Buying a used radiator: what to check
- Inspect for bent fins, crusted seams, and dried coolant trails, all signs of leaks.
- Confirm automatic vs manual transmission versions; auto radiators include cooler lines.
- Plastic end tanks age badly. Favor low-mileage donors.
- Pressure-tested units are worth the premium; ask.
