  1. Radiator Longevity

    Posted 20 Oct 2009

    I've done the search thing, and did not find anything about the longevity of the original radiator for my vehicle. I have 156k miles, and am thinking that, before the winter, I should replace for piece of mind. Back when I bought the car, the indy I was taking it to, mentioned that the radiators are good for about 120k or so, so I'm thinking I'm due. FCP is a great source, and Rich's writup as well as the postings about it will be all I need.

    So, who thinks it is time to replace? Anyone ever find a metal tank aftermarket version, and is it really even worth the assumed greater cost?

    Thanks!!

  2. "glt"

    Posted 24 Nov 2008

    Can anyone advise (I did do a search), if the 1998 V70 GLT came in a turb and also N/A version? I've been discussing one with a guy who is selling, and I had a look at the liftgate, and it clearly says "GLT", but when I asked him, over the phone, if it was a turbo, he said no...

    Searching Google for V70 GLT points out that they all had LPT's and put out 190 BHP when new. Is this guy full of it?
