    Branded alloy if you go that way. But general value for money would be a copper/brass unit. Even a genuine item for the cost and the time frame they last makes it good value. Stay away from the cheap alloy items out of china.

    Is yours broken? Or are you having overheating issues?

    Have you had the current system service? Radiator cleaned internally and externally, thermostat, hoses, block flush. Are all your rubber curtains in place inside the guard? Factory bash/splash guard in place? Foam between condenser and rad? Condenser is clean and not clogged?
