My Volvo has developed a slow coolant leaking problem: there are coolant
traces on both sides of the radiator, and several of the hose connections;
it looks like the system may have too high pressure. Could this be a
symptom of plugged radiator? I've changed the coolant a little over a
year ago, together with water pump and some hoses/clamps. The coolant
now is mostly clear (I mean bluish green), with some sediments in the
overflow tank (there used to be a lot of crud there, so I changed the
overflow tank with the collant as well). The car has almost 157k on
the odo and is 13 year old (1998 V90), so I figure it's time for a
new radiator anyways. Just wonder if that would take care of the
leaking problem...
Thanks,
Vlad
