Leaky Griffith radiator

[becky]

Just found that it looks like I have a leak on the radiator of the Griff....at this stage cannot tell where from and how much. It's probably down to the car not being used regularly, I'm ashamed to say. Looking on the worst case scenario, how much is a new radiator and what is the fitting cost ikely to be? Not my day....England lost, Bath lost and now this!!!!!!

Hi Martin,

See this Thread HERE
If you can Take your Rad out yourself you'll save a bit, Its a little Tricky but not to bad.
Get it pressure tested and if leak found a recore should cost from £110-£150.

Mine is booked into Racing Green this week, just to be on the safe side for Le Mans, I am told that the total cost should be about £250, we live in hope!!

recently had my rad replaced under warranty £240ish inc.vat for the brand new tvr rad.some specialists are quoting 175+vat-195+vat for a recon one.newport radiators quoted £100+vat to recore my old one and could fit a threaded hole in the rad outlet for fitment of an otter switch.if you go down the recore route then id strongly reccomend you have this mod done as itll improve your cooling significantly by having the otter switch in the correct place.either way getting it re-cored by a rad specialist rather than a tvr specialist is by far the cheapest option.
