Caught Early Before Overheating Could Happen 

During a routine check, we spotted a coolant leak coming from the corner of the radiator. The issue was visible and dripping, with a clear sign of corrosion around the edge. Left unresolved, this could’ve led to engine overheating, costly repairs or even breakdown.

Thankfully, this one was a straight swap radiator replacement. We removed the leaking unit and installed a brand new radiator, topping up fresh coolant and bleeding the system for a smooth return to the road.

Common Signs of a Leaking Radiator

• Puddles of coolant under the vehicle
• Engine temperature rising faster than usual
• Steam or sweet smell from the bonnet
• Low coolant warning light on the dashboard

If you’re seeing any of these symptoms, don’t wait – early intervention can prevent serious damage.
