Scott 0 Posted May 28, 2004 Get a genuine one or OE if poss - as have seen some terrible pattern ones... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted May 28, 2004 GPC sell crap pattern ones. get an AKG one form Euro car parts, nly £100 plus VAT and it's actually a Valeo one, so OE quality. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phaserno1 0 Posted May 28, 2004 phat - thanks alot for the euro parts web add, i will get one from there apart from they are out of stock just my luck lol... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted May 28, 2004 I think VAG used to use "xxxxx Denso" or something as their OE fit but Valeo are the ones to go for now. The main weakness with the shit rads is the plastic end cap quality. You just know the plastic is going to split in half as you screw the fan shroud down :roll: And they do as I've had it happen.

Henny 0 Posted May 28, 2004 the one I just bought from Euro turned out to be a genuine VAG one which has just had the VAG logo sanded off it (badly 'cos you can still read it! ;) ) 8) They were listing VR6 ones for £117 IIRC.... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
