FAQ
What are the signs I need radiator repairs?
Radiators often show subtle signs before they fail completely. Common symptoms include engine overheating, discoloured coolant, low coolant levels, steam from the bonnet, or visible cracks in the radiator tank. If the temperature gauge is acting erratically or your heater isn’t working properly, it’s also worth having the system checked. Even a minor leak can lead to serious engine damage if left too long.
Is it safe to drive with a damaged radiator?
Driving with a damaged radiator significantly increases the risk of engine overheating, which can lead to serious damage like warped cylinder heads, blown gaskets, or cracked blocks. Even a small leak can quickly escalate into a major issue, especially during hot weather or long trips. It’s always best to stop immediately and seek a professional inspection at the first sign of trouble to prevent costly repairs.
Can a damaged radiator be repaired or does it need replacing?
Not all damaged radiators need full replacement—many can be repaired depending on the severity and location of the issue. Small leaks or cracked tanks may be sealed or replaced, while blockages can be flushed out. If the core is heavily corroded or damaged, recoring may be an option. However, if structural integrity is compromised or repairs won’t last, replacement is usually recommended.
