Anther heater core?

[tv's 03]

I just took my car in again for a heater core. This one has just over 10,000 miles on it. I have the Apten cooling mod without the restrictor, anyone else with this mod having issues with cores?

Interesting...

any info on whether the cores are showing corrosion or fractures?

were the leaks leaks found on the inlet/outlet tubes entering/exiting the heater core or on the core itself ??

I really don't know. As memory servers me (not very well for the most part), My mechanic on the last one said it looked like a manufacturer defect because it leaked at a seam. I thought he said it was on the inlet or outlet tubes

OK, thanks anyway

Make sure your hoses aren't putting stress on the inlet/outlet tubes. The tube construction/seams aren't that strong and a hose putting constant pressure [pulling sideways or up or down] on them could cause them to fail prematurely.
