Hey guys,
2001 XE 70,000. Decided to replace the radiator after hearing all the horror stories of tranny fluid in rad. and coolant in tranny.
Courtesy parts list them at about 400 bucks, Rock Auto 83 to 140. W.T.F.
I know you get what you pay for, but that's a hell of a difference.
So what rad. should I get as a replacement??

Get the rad listed for the SC model, its a direct swap, and has better cooling.

Thanks guys, makes sense....from Rock Auto or Courtesy? I like the idea of Rock Auto's price, but no point in putting cheap junk in.
