On the GU the breathers are mounted inside the LH guard and can't been seen. Eventually I had a "mud" like liquid throughout the LH wheel arch that smelt and felt of oil but no obvious cause (till now).
So a word of warning to auto drivers with stupid plastic radiators. An internal leak can be EXPENSIVE! Better to spend a grand now than six later.
I thought the auto cooler lines in the radiator were metal or at least the two ends are? The bottom tank should not get hot enough to cause a problem with the metal cooler inside??
If somebody knows for sure would be good to know?
Have missed your updates, sorry to hear it eventually failed completely
Might of cost you some pretty pennys but at least you have it sorted now.
Did you install it yourself or get someone to fit it? In other words.......................any pics?????
Cheers

G'day Todd. Some pics are here. Fitted by my mechanic with my assistance (I cleaned up and held the spanners).
