Owner reviews for engine radiator

I'm planning on spending $710~ on a Mishimoto FULLY sealed radiator (no stupid plastic side tanks).

The radiator does cool the DSG so I feel the Mishimoto radiator was definitely worth it.

So, I have the Mishimoto rado, which I bought for my Mk3 but now I'm transplanting it all into my Mk2. That's why I'm asking.

How do you like the Mishimoto rad?

Received the Mishimoto radiator

griffins normal fit better. i've used both in other cars. but for the cost. mistimoto is good. they work well, no issues as of yet! just fitment is ehhh.

The Ford has been really reliable, the radiator did develop a crack, but I did the ol' hillbilly tune up, fixed it with an egg, and 3 tours later, not a single issue.

A few things in this pic make me gag, the FRAM filter and cork VC gasket. Not a fan of Castrol oil either, but it isn't the end of the world yet. The Nissens radiator is a nice product, I've used them in the past of other European vehicles.

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.

I ordered a radiator based on its price and brand. I didn't want one from china and they offered a German made one and yet i get the exact radiator that i didn't want. I didn't have time to send it back, i needed to get the car running and moved.
