  • Overheating:

I remember when my First Radiator blew up at 20108 miles, just out of warranty, and the Dealer ship was going to sell me another Plastic/Aluminum one for the mark down price of 120 bucks. I found a radiator shop that got me a Brass and Copper one for 108. It lasted for the next 19 years with out failure.

Pros: lasted 19 years
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 20108 km

I’ve got Mishimoto’s X-Line radiator. It’s an absolute beast of a rad. I’ve had mine for 7 years of daily driving and track days, and I’ve had zero problems with it. I fully expect it to last for the life of my M3.

Not everyone has great things to say about Mishimoto rads, but from what I can tell their X-Line rads are built very well.

Pros: absolute beast, zero problems, built well, long lasting
Vehicle: BMW

OEM Volkswagen Engine radiator

The radiator on my 2016 is leaking, although leak isn't really the right word. Maybe porous. The hole is so small, it takes months to show a change in the coolant reservoir. On some days, given proper conditions, a small wisp of steam is visible coming from the radiator area. I added a UV dye to the cooling system, and it is visible then.

Pros: UV dye makes visible
Cons: small hole, porous

With that taken care of reliability concerns would be pretty minimal and the core itself should be an improvement. I even confirmed with Mishimoto, in writing, that modifying the quick connects would NOT void my lifetime warranty with them.

Pros: improves cooling
Cons: gamble, core leaks
Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat B6

MISHIMOTO Engine radiator

The Mishimoto all aluminum radiator (2 core) started leaking this past January (86k miles) in the top left corner (if you are facing the grill). From what I can tell with reviews, I was lucky to get 18k miles on that radiator.

Cons: started leaking, short lifespan
Vehicle: Jeep
Mileage: 28968 km

Two months ago I installed a Mishimoto radiator. Now im consistently mid 190's, temp goes to 205 regularly, and then fans come on and cools back down.

Cons: higher operating temperature
