obviously not , but mines been in for a while now temps are bang on , so even if I get 5 + out of it it will be ok.

think about it the original lasted 18 years , the car wont last that long , so no point paying mr t that sort of money when youll probably need to replace something else quite soon, damage limitation now I think .

only just this year got mine back running , if it becomes a money pit then its gone

yes straight swap cooler in it, the mechanic did have a few screws or something under he had to drill due to rust , but didn't charge me any extra for the fit

 

That's not bad then tbh, Im in need of a new one soon loads of the fins has collapsed on mine and for £80 new its got to be worth a shot :thumbs:

My usual toyota parts dealer has told me the stock radiator is discontinued and unavailable, is that true :(

 

Really i find that hard too believe tbh its a degradable part, stupid decision by toyota if its true, but then looking at the prices above you cant blame poeple for going aftermarket

I think mine is on it's way out as well so mght be interested in one of these. Mines a facelift model, can anyone confirm if the rad is the same as the pre-facelift model?

I have access to some OEM ones at great prices. Toyota now want an old rad in exchange which suggest you may be buying re-conned units. If your dealer can get them at all. I have not got conclusive evidence of whether they have stopped making them yet, some dealers say yes, some no.... There are FAR more OEM variants than most realise, I need a high res photo of the rear face of your rad showing all the fan shroud pick up points, and need to know how thick the actual core is, front to back, plus whether it's for an auto or not. There's absolutely no reason not to use an auto rad on a manual, but if you have an auto you NEED or an auto rad, with the gearbox cooler in the bottom tank, or you are in for hassle and expense with external coolers. If you put an auto rad on a manual you get a great PAS cooler for nearly free, to replace the now corroding but of bent pipe Toyota saw fit to use. Car owners doing track days should consider this, tight tracks can cause extremely high PAS fluid temps and rack problems with the stock cooler....

Extracting just the radiator assembly part numbers gives....
