Use Nissen radiators from reputible source 900

I used a CSF radiator from radiatorexpress.com and it failed after 2.25 years. Neither radiatorExpres nor CSF will acknowledge my emails. As an FYI go with Nissens from fcpgroton.com or eeuroparts.com for your radiator needs.

    Use Nissen radiators from reputible source 900

    When I bought my '93 945, it had a CSF radiator which was leaking. I took it to a repair shop and they resoldered the radiator. The shop owner, very reputable, told me that the amount of metal at the soldered joints was too little to allow a really strong soldered joint and that I could expect a leak again.

    The leak came again and I replaced the CSF with a Nissens. Although the CSF had a label stating "lifetime warranty", there was no way to ask for warranty service. I will not buy CSF.
