    Radiator replacment

    I've got a question for the more knowledgable.

    After the unpleasant surprise of an alert message "too low coolant level" during the last mountain drive out, it turns out I had to replace the left and right radiator on my 997 T (MY2007) after less than 35 Tkm.

    Is this a common issue?

    Actually was very surprised as I had count on a better reliability.

    Cheers for your comments.

    Re: Radiator replacment

    Other than a regular service radiator replacements were the only reason my previous two cars went to the work shop. They got pierced by stones or other objects. Always happened on public roads and never during a track day so probably just unlucky. Front radiator seems most prone to damage due to its position and missing protection
