Anyone recommend a good radiator for the Q. It seems that the hose the goes from the radiator cap to the actuall radiator broke off and the car overheated. It seems that a piece of the radiator broke of inside the hose, I had to restretch the hose and put a bigger clamp just to drive home. The car works good now but the radiator will have to be replaced. Any suggestions.

I got a CSF. Worked GREAT. Very well made. Installation was easy too.

Make sure you get one with metal end tanks.

Make sure you change the oil and ATF, as they can cause damage later fromt he heat exposure.

Check for KS code as most overheats take out, crack Knock Sensors.

radiatorbarn.comCall these guys and be sure to specify a CSF radiator for a 1995 Q45, with metal end tanks. It should be under $180.
