Just got some news at my local radiator repair guy. After having my cooling
system reverse flushed for the winter, he pointed out to me that my plastic radiator had cracks all along the exterior fins and that it most likely will
need to be replaced at some time. He also told me that it would run me a hefty
$450 for the part and labor. Wow! And this wasn't even a Volvo dealer.
Anyway, has anyone had to replace their radiator recently and if so, can you
recommend a good O.E. replacement? I can't believe Volvo made the outer shell
out of plastic. The inner core could be fine but the outer plastic shell screws
up everything.

Thanks & Happy Holidays!
