vs
Engine radiator VALEO or OEM Toyota
Reviews
I can't believe your Tercel blew a rad. That was the most bulletproof car I have ever owned. It made me a life long toyota car owner
Pros: bulletproof, reliable
Vehicle:
Toyota Tercel
I replaced the aging radiator in December. It went smoothly, everything came apart and went back together as the Toyota Gods intended.
Pros: went together smoothly
Vehicle:
Lexus
The only ones that seem to be made better are the Valeo's, there's a reason they cost more. I looked at mine, it has (relatively large) tubes inside not stamped channels.
Pros: made better, large tubes
Cons: cost more
I bought the Valeo rad for my 03 GTi from Rockauto for $89. It appears to be exactly the same as stock.
Pros: same as stock
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Valeo 3 row radiator is what i use and it works great
Pros: works great
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta IV
I'd buy a Valeo, but Valeo doesn't have a part number for the later Cabriolets and their catalog lists incorrect sizes. I bought my radiator locally, but I needed it ASAP and they happened to have a Valeo in stock
Pros: Valeo in stock
Cons: incorrect sizes
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Part number: 883727
I did change a radiator on my Previa few years back. It's more of a maintenance thing (if you ask me). Any car of that age will most likely have a bad radiator/ or clogged up radiator.
Pros: maintenance thing
Cons: bad or clogged radiator
Vehicle:
Toyota Previa
my valeo radiator didn't come with anything.. im just hoping it doesn't leak from that zone.
Cons: hoping it doesn't leak
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta IV
This new radiator expect to fail within 1 year warranty or 1 day after warranty runs out. Original OEM was Valeo Made in Brazil, went 22 years. It cracked from pulling on upper hose to see timing mark on flywheel.
Cons: expect to fail soon
That era of Toyota radiator top tank did do this. My one split across the top instead of where yours broke.
Cons: split across top
Vehicle:
Toyota
