About a month ago I noticed a few drops of coolant on the floor below the radiator. I assumed it was a leaking connection and went through and tightened all the hose clamps. Now I'm realizing that it's the radiator. It's difficult to see exactly where it's leaking but I've narrowed it down the passenger's side upper portion. The fluid is presenting where the fins meet the side of the radiator a few inches below the inlet at the top. The leak is gradually getting worse (they don't get better right...).
The radiator is 2 years old and has about 5500 miles on it.
Two questions: Is this a common area for these to fail? I did not use the Breeze mounting technique and I'm wondering if this is a result of not doing that.
Second question, as I'm assuming it's not repairable, what would you all recommend for a replacement? Should I order a new FFR unit or is there a better option?
