| Hi just joined, have the above vehicle since new, now 44k miles. Today hada new radiator due to corrosion and leaking at the corners...is this normal, I was surprised. Is there any redress to SKoda as we are 5 months out of warranty! |

| Welcome to Briskoda. Yours isn't a common fault on this forum but I doubt that you would have any redress given the age of the car.

| Yep, first time I've heard about that problem... Has the correct (G12+, pink) coolant always been used? Welcome to the forum! ![]() |
