According J.D. Power's
Vehicle Dependability Study, reliability of small and compact cars
are up 5% industry wide, meaning car owners are less likely to bump
into trouble. Of course, advances in engine design and engineering
have naturally made cars more resilient, which also means greater
savings for drivers.
As with all machines
though, your car will still encounter problems occasionally, and one
of the most common ones are radiator issues. While leaky radiator
hoses can be fixed easily enough, bigger problems like extensive
cracks or clogged chambers often necessitates getting a new unit.
With not enough coolant passing through the radiator, your car engine
will quickly overheat, leading to even more damage.
However, buying a new
radiator should be done carefully to get the most out of your money.
First, make sure to find a reliable radiator shop that carries
top-quality and warranted goods for a reasonable price. They should
also offer expert installation so your new radiator won’t be
damaged by mishandling.
In terms of material,
aluminum is now the leading choice since it does not corrode like
other metals. Also make sure that the tubing are wide but not too
thick so the fan can easily disperse the heat. Speaking of the fan,
electric ones are better than mechanical fans since they consume less
power.
The radiator is one of
the most important parts of your car so take your time when picking a
replacement and keep these care tips in mind.
