Radiator replacement advice
I have discovered a hole/leak in the top right front of my radiator. In considering a replacement are the aftermarket brands good or should I stick with the high priced OEM radiator?
Also any advice from those that have replaced their own radiator before? Any gotchas I should be aware of?

Looking at your posting history, is this for an '04 R50? If you don't want to go with the Genuine MINI radiator, I would recommend CSF: http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/..._pg1.htm#item3. Very good quality. I've run a few of their racing radiators. They are well spoken about in the Porsche community as far as quality and performance as well. They might make a full aluminum one for the R50, but not sure. I can check, but also echo what was said above about going full aluminum, personally.
