Hey guys,
about a couple of months ago i was in an accident, someone hit my front right hand side of the car.. and it cracked the radiator a bit, the panel beater just place some glue on top of it... n recently its leaking so i took it back to get it fixed... ONCE again he put more glue on it, I'M NOT TOO HAPPY.. But the problem is now... i think theres another crack somewhere else... because coolant water is leaking inside the car. the front passenger side..... I want to know is this a serious problem? does it need alot of work to fix all these radiator problems.. I know for a fact i need a new radiator for sure... but do i need to change other stuff?? any comment would help alot THanks NaKeD -------------------- ![]() |

no, call your insurance, tell them/show them the repair work he's done and demand that another shop fix it correctly.

'glueing up the radiator'??? thats the dumbest thing i've ever heard, yeah maybe its something you'd do yourself if money was tight as a temporary repair but when its an insurance paid repair, it should be a new radiator at least! also agree with the heater matrix being broken (or at best it could just be a loose pipe going in/out of it mate?)
