Radiator for my car
« on: 19 November 2014, 06:33:14 »

I cracked the core when I flushed the oil and crap out during the flush after the oil cooler change  >:(

Would this one do the job ?

The motors a 3.2 auto with aircon

TIA

I have a near new one for 2.2 2.5 3.0 which can be used for 3.2 I believe.

Possibly, but double check that it has the mountings for the external oil cooler... not all the cheapy ones do :-\

That seems very cheap for an Omega rad - personally I would be a little wary (read the guy's neg and neutral feedback).

Just fitted a new one to the 2.6 Estate (the orig GM one had stressed cracked around the top sensor mount) - cost £100 delivered next day and from a company I have used a few times before.  Good quality and fit.

They also sell through eBay :y No issues here either, although I always find rads a tight fit around the aircon plumbing/chassis rails :-\

I think it depends on the bracketry for the external auto box cooler on the 3.2 which isn't present on the 2.5-3.0

Try and locate a Behr radiator, they are a major german brand, and supply to vauxhall oe and other car manufacturers, probably pay around £90 - 100.

Second vote for car cooling - excellent service and good product. I would ring and talk to them rather than ordering online though.

I've fitted an after market one with the integral autobox cooler to my 3.2, and have not suffered any problems. :y

Well, ended up having to ring Car Cooling back 4 times this afternoon because they didn't return my calls when they said they would  >:( >:(
Also spoke to a local firm who said that both of there suppliers have stopped supplying the one with the brackets

This could be a problem for those with auto 3.2 omegas  :(

I'll carry on searching and report back if I find anything

Have you still got the details for that one Shack ?

Car cooling has finally got back to me and it looks like i'm sorted but it would be handy if these things are going to get rare  :)

For reference but after the fun they had finding one, best to check,  the Car Cooling ident number is ................ 12OLL437 (that's a "o" not a zero)

After a charm offensive by moi, I knocked them down to £97.56

Also ring this number AFTER 15:30 if you want to talk to them
