Good day all,

Was wondering what the opinion is of this brand radiator from anyone who had purchased one. How long has it been?

Thanks.

I hadn't heard anything bad about them,although I used a Nissens from denmark bought on ebay, and it caused my 240 to run a lot better immediately, very easy to replace also.

Mine's only been in for a few weeks so I can't comment on long term but so far so good. My '87 740 had the original Volvo aluminum/plastic radiator which I was worried was going to fail. WWW.radtech.com has the Modine 2144 (their model # DPI 83) for 79.00 plus free shipping which also has a lifetime warranty. Installation was easy other than I had to cut the plastic fan shroud a little bit at the water return inlet to get hose clearance (took about five extra minutes), and the radiator came with a good gasket and sealing ring for the temperature sensor. Only time will tell but it seems like good quality.
