I was just informed that my radiator "tanks" are leaking. I contacted a radiator shop and they said I could have them just replace the tanks. However, the dealership said this was not an option. Tank replacement is 100 a tank.....aftermarket radiator with install is 400....which would you suggest?

Hi there,

If there is no sign of detraction of the core, i would just do the tanks, a 4 year old core should be fine, ask the radiator specialist to ensure that the core is 100% serviceable before replacing tanks.
