radiator leak 850 94

I just bought 6 month ago a 1994 850 sedan (130 000 km). My problem is that the radiator seems to be leaking coolant from both ends when the car gets cold. This was not visible in the summer and it only happens when the temperature goes belong freezing or so. My radiator is an original aluminium with plastic end caps. Since the leak is very small (about 1 teaspoon per end per cold day) and the radiator seems not corroded, I'd prefer not to replace the whole thing. Please advise if this could be a radiator cap overpressure or hose problem.

Thanks

R. Casgrain
