Hi Guys,

[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=small][font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]Can someone point me to a place where I can buy a better radiator than the weak [/font][font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]dealership sourced[/font][font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif] radiators.[/font][/font][/size]

[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]My vehicle is a 2011 335i DCT N55 LCI, it's stock, bought it in Sept 2011, and have changed the radiator twice already and it's now leaking again. Is there something I can do on the vehicle to prevent it from killing it's radiators?[/font]

Look for your nearest Silverton radiator franchise and have them perform a pressure test on your car.. There must be some other reason the radiator is failing, as these are not normally cooling components that go in a hurry.

Silverton also stock BEHR radiators, which are known to be among the best locally.

Thanks I'll do.

Something else is causing this problem I’d guess.

I meant to say I bought the car in September 2017

I'm also guessing there's another problem, because in 2016 July a radiator was replaced by BMW.
I bought the car in 2017, and in May 2018 I claimed another radiator under BMW Warranty because it was less than 24 months.
Last year December 2019 I installed a new one which is leaking now.
