Car radiators help to get rid of excess heat in internal combustion engines. They consist of two water tanks linked by several narrow tubes. The hot coolant is pumped from the engine through one tank and the core, and cold air is used to reduce its temperature so it can be pumped back into the engine.

Common car radiator problems include rust, leaking coolant, damaged fins, a failed radiator fan and a broken water pump. Watch out for the following symptoms: high engine temperature, coolant colour change, low coolant, sludge in the system and visible damage. All these issues indicate you may need to book a car radiator repair.

There are a few different types of repair to be aware of, such as car radiator hose repair, car radiator refurbishment and coolant leak repair. The cost to repair a car radiator varies depending on which car you have.
