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 -------------------- ![]() |

I got a call from the Radiator place today (a friend of the panel beater) telling me all these lies for 15 mins, stuff like:
1. your car is 11 years old, the radiator was going to go anyway, it has nothing to do with the accident http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e372/naked007/P3010003.jpg You guys look at the pic and tell me if the radiator cracked because of the accident? 2. Celicas are known for bad radiators, they get old, rusty and crack easilly 3. You broke the Heater core after you left the mechanic, meaning hes not responsible for the car anymore (errrrr what a load of sh$t) 4. Your heater core is old, we checked it and it was going to go anyway i'm so mad at the shifty bugger! NaKeD -------------------- ![]() |
