OK, looks like my 850 sedan is going to need a radiator. I prefer OEM, but have had good success with Nissens. Does anyone know if it still comes with the auto tranny cooler line spring clips and does it have the drain plug at the bottom like the OEM one?

Or just cough up a bit more $$ and get the OEM one.

Thanks.

Mike

    thanks for input, both are about the same cost, have good past success with Nissens. I'd guess both are manufactured in China today, and no more all metal radiators.

    No issues with Nissens that I have used. Trany couplings and drain on bottom. Just wish it was not a plastic drain plug, I use the lower hose to drain.

    FWIW - About 2 1/2 years ago I put a Behr in my 95 wagon. No issues...

    I had read some bad reviews about Nissens here so I decided to go with the Behr. About the same cost as a Nissens.
