Gunner 0 Report post Posted August 28, 2012 Hey everyone, Over the weekend I noticed the smallest of leaks which appeared to be radiator coolant on a hose just behind the bumper. The leak took about an hour before it developed into any sort of drop but as the car has done 123000km I think its time to do a full cooling system overhaul. I am just wondering how much am I looking at to get this done (mainly for budgeting purposes) as I want to do it all at once and get it done right. I would prefer OEM parts for this job. So I will be looking at getting the radiator replaced, expansion tank and I guess any hoses coming to and from the cooling system? I won’t be doing the work myself so just want a rough ballpark figure so I can shop around between mechanics to see where I can get the best deal. Thanks for your input.
