GXL 0 Posted June 22, 2020 Does anyone have or can point me in the right direction for a new Radiator for a mk3 2.0 litre automatic please regards Sean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Walton 128 Posted June 22, 2020 Hi Sean, I have a MK5 with a 4 speed auto box. I did away with the original radiator and fitted an external oil cooler. My 4 speed box has bigger oil cooler pipes than the 3 speed box but you should be able to source fittings. Cheers Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheffieldcortinacentre 529 Posted June 22, 2020 You can use a MK4/5 ohc one too. To be honest I use desperate ones then no chance of water getting in box, plus easier choice of rad replacement. A decent rad place should be able to get or rebuild one. After that eBay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Scarlet 84 Posted June 23, 2020 As above, much better to go separate cooler for the trans,once the water gets in the trans it’s auto rebuild time £££££’s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GXL 0 Posted June 24, 2020 Great advice guys I have a spare new regular radiator so I will fit that and get a separate oil cooler radiator. i guess I should mount it front and low away from the engine to maximise cooling. Any pics of where you have mounted yours would be a great help. thanks once again. regards Sean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Walton 128 Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) Hi, I mounted mine as shown. It now has a 10 Row oil cooler " Mocal Style" as the one in the picture sprung a small leak. This is similar to the one I now have fitted. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Classic-Mini-Oil-Cooler-10-Row-INC-FREE-POST-austin-rover-morris-kit-car-cooper/172941811812?hash=item284422a064:g:~BIAAOSwmgJY1o9c Edited June 24, 2020 by Steve Walton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
