Remember when the druggie neighbors backed their truck into my grille ? .
They hit it so hard the bent the AC Condenser into a 'U' shape , broke the AC fan , bent the radiator core support and the fan cut a hole through the top of the plastic fan shroud .
Everything worked O.K. so I bought a new AC fan and grille , installed both and have been driving it since then .
To - day as I was returning from shopping I stopped to buy SWMBO some Coffee and as I came out of the Winchell's , I see coolant dripping......
Oh great , now what ? .
I pop the hood and the upper tank to core seam of my custom made all metal radiator is weeping just a little bit ~ I squeeze the top hose and feel pressure but when I squeeze it , coolant bubbles out .
I'm supposed to drive it to Death Valley in three weeks......
SWMBO says I can drive her '82 240D there .
Last time I did that , I blew a water pump in Rhyolite , Nev. costing me several days and over $2,000 .
The ' fun ' ~ it never ends .
