Coolant leak.
 

I just noticed my car was leaking a decent amount of coolant the oher day. I took it apart and it is the center radiator that was leaking. It was actually leaking internally and out one of the mounting points on the end caps. I just thought this would be intersting to share. I guess its time for a new center radiator. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1433108488.jpg

Perfect excuse to drop a CSF Radiator in it. ;)

CSF Radiator Porsche Boxster S 986 [Aluminum - Auxiliary] (1996-2004) 7057

Those are great an all but I need the center radiator. They only make the outer rads. :( Who has the best prices on oem center rads?

Also oem or aftermarket?

That is the center radiator. They finally came out with them.

Grr....... You're going to make me have to buy one of them. :)

lol, I'd like to have them. The price to replace something that's not broken stops me.

$168.12 more then the stock Porsche rad.

Mine is broken but do I really need a aluminum center radiator? It's not like you can pop the hood and check out my new blingy piece. Do they really make that much of a difference?

Just a quick update. I just ordered the CSF Center radiator from LN. I'll take pics when it gets here.

Beautiful. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1434149889.jpg

Nice! That's sweeeeet. Should last longer, curios how much it helps out on cooling.

We shall see. I need to get some coolant for the project. Anything other than porsche brand that i can mix in with porsche coolant?

Prestone will work fine with Porsche antifreeze.

Csf in was a perfect fit. I had some porsche antifreeze so i just used what was needed. Probably not nessesary to buy the csf but f it, why not. :cheers::cheers:

Interested if it made any difference in cooling when your pushing it hard.
