Aja1 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 What are some reasons that would cause a radiator to be replaced at 60,000 miles? Are there other things I should be wary of becuase of it? Thanks! Aja1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 What year and model Subaru? Is it that style where the top hose enters the radiator at the center of the top? I hear those are more prone to clogging possibly due to flow stagnation in certain areas. Did you run gm dexcool or other OAT antifreeze in there? That stuff will glop up if the system is getting air into it all from any leaks or a bad radiator cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 model mileage and year would be nice. A few things can clog a radiator. One is using tap water, another is the wrong coolant, too much stop leak, oil or tranny fluid contamination, physical damage.... nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
