Just want to review and confirm any prior problems with buying a aftermarket radiator for the subject car above? Hawkes Radiator shop (Phoenix, AZ) offers a Samsum??? aftermarket part at a low price. My accord is old with 200K+- miles, and does not require the perfect radiator. Just to get by for another 100,000 miles is fine for it. My concern is fit (Fans/mounting). Any other comments is appriciated. Regards JJ

 

I bought an after market radiator from the Honda Dealer. It was a friggin joke. Lasted 1.5 - 2 years.

I bought a Koya aftermarket radiator from a Honda specialist two years ago. It's still good.

I will never buy another aftermarket radiator. Just my personal bad experience from the Honda Dealer.

 

Thanks for your comments. I guess the next question would be, what whent wrong with the radiator? Did the welds go out? Did it started to leak? Regards JJ

 

Started leaking.
