I have a 2001 LDV Pilot 1.9 which has a faulty rad. I'm trying to source a new rad but struggling to find one, does anyone have any suggestions, I'm wondering if a rad from another van or vehicle would be suitable with some adjustments??

It's a Peugeot engine isn't it? Assume the rad was fitted to other vehicles as well, possibly take the old rad to a breakers yard and see if they can match it up?

Can anyone suggest a reputable company in the Uk where we could buy a reconditioned one perhaps? We have purchased two second hand ones which have both been faulty! Help!!

The same engine is fit in lots of other vehicles but our mechanic says the rads for those vehicles is not compatable??

I've scrapped loads of a Pilots and Convoy's over the years, tragically I don't have any spares for them these days, but used to run a fleet of 15.
