I got a Jeep Wrangler. I've put in 2 radiators myself. Cost was roughly $100-$200 for a radiator. Had to put one in at roughly 150,000 miles each time. My Jeep has 386,000 miles on it lol.

I have never replaced a radiator on any vehicle I have ever owned.

Heck, last time I replaced the radiator, I also replaced the thermostat and hoses like last time, but this time I also replaced the water pump and clutch fan. Basically the whole cooling system lol.



Hopefully painting the Jeep this year. I know I gotta replace the front brakes.



This past weekend, I patched my seat. Was mostly gone on the side from getting in and out, no cushion, big open hole, down to the metal hahahaa. I sewed some thick fabric on, stuffed some pillow stuffing in, then closed it up. Looks and feels WAY better.
I've come here to chew bubble gum, and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.

You put a lot of kms on your vehicle. My Jetta is eight years old and only has 89,000 kms on it or about 55,000 miles. That is the perk of having my office close to where I live.
