I replaced the rubber hoses that fit on to the radiator. Worth doing while you're in there.

well its always a good idea to start at one end, :lol: I started at the back and just kept going till I got to the front :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sorry please excuse the sarcasm, I have just been around all sorts of sporting Renaults of this age :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

check/replace thermostat, no point having a new rad if the water is not allowed to circulate around it properly and its only a few quid :wink:

si21 I see you baby shaking that asp!!! :lol: :lol:
