Compare Fiat Punto radiator repair quotes from specialist garages

Fiat is known for its small-sized vehicles, like the iconic Fiat 500 and the Fiat Panda, famously one of ex-Top Gear presenter James May's favourite cars. Take a look at our list of top ten cars like the Fiat 500 here.

However, the brand has also branched out from its small-car origins, and in 2023, a Fiat E-Scudo all-electric van set a world record for the longest distance travelled by a van on a single charge, covering just over 311 miles.

Despite the earliest Fiat 500 being released all the way back in 1957, the latest iterations are still making waves, winning 'Best Small Car' at the 2022 Autocar Awards, with its electric counterpart, the 500e, winning 'Best Electric Small Car' at the 2023 WhatCar? Electric Car Awards.

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.
