A word of warning to all.
On investigating a slight water leak from the 58 plate nosejob I discovered to my horror that the entire radiator is just being supported by the hoses!
The panel that sits below it looks as though its been at the bottom of the sea.
Prevoiusly to this Multi, I had an 04 roundnose - on which I replaced the radiator about a year ago and the bracket was fine. Not sure why this one is so bad. Anyone suffered from the same issue?

Hi there, Yep, had to change mine on my 05 Multi about 3 years ago. I had noticed a small amount of rust the previous year but it was completed corroded away in the following year!

Cheers

00 bracket is totaly corroded and radiator hanging on hoses, but it's stable, so maybe some day i will change it
