banarama Posted March 9, 2010 Report Posted March 9, 2010 ive had dealings with 2 of these rads,1 my old coz it leaked on the welds. 2nd my rs2 surprise it leaked on the welds both bottom right. went back to ford rads no problems.
Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted March 9, 2010 Report Posted March 9, 2010 i would drive to where ever you got it from show them then say i can take the rad out bring it and wait while you weld it i bet you paid good money for it so it should be right dont leave it too long or they may not do it
samurai Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Posted March 9, 2010 Driving to Wales from London hahah on twin 45's and its not properly tuned yet. Im way to busy to even take the rad out! University assignments and exams all within the next 3 weeks!!! Stressed! I sent a video of it leaking so will wait to see what happens tomorrow Its the top weld around the pipe,a small pin hole about 0.5mm.
Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted March 9, 2010 Report Posted March 9, 2010 you might not have to take it out for that then
GT_lenny Posted March 10, 2010 Report Posted March 10, 2010 thats shocking if it were mine i'd be able to throw it back to south wales because i'd be totally consumed with rage nothing to do with superhuman strength

DEP Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 Nigel you have PM mate. Just like to say my bit, Alimax have 100 s if not 1000 s of satisfied customers over the years he s been trading, And i know that there are quite a few members on here that have had ally products off him, and have been very happy with the them. On a more personal note as a close friend of Alwyn s, i know Alwyn will want to rectify this quickly and efficiently. And will bend over backwards to help anyone out And finally would just like to remind everyone that Alimax are a site sponsor and pay good money to help with the running of the site.
