    62082 is rated 1.0 out of 5 by 1.
    Rated 1 out of 5 by from 2 failures I bought this radiator in July 2016 as a preventative replacement for my original, brass and copper radiator that was beginning to show softness in the tubes. At the time, no OEM replacements were available and be cool was one of the only options on the market. The radiator was professionally installed and worked great, at first. But, the be cool radiator began leaking 8 months later in April 2017. The leak was between tubes at a joint and not from an impact or improper install. Jegs replaced it without issue and I again had the new replacement professionally installed; but exactly 12 months later (April 2018) the replacement radiator also began leaking between the tubes in nearly the same location as the first be cool radiator! To be clear, the issue is not due to an impact or improper install. It also is not due to any issues with the car, such as an over pressurized cooling system. These failures appear to be straight up defects in the joint between the tubes and the side tank. In addition, this radiator is not even close to a direct fit for Jaguars. The upper radiator hose fitting is too large and the mechanic had to stretch a new hose to fit. Also, the electric fan switch is relocated on the becool radiator to the lower radiator hose inlet instead of on the side tank as with the OEM. However, you need a special adapter to make the original switch work as becool has it threaded NPT and the jaguar switch is metric. Similarly, the automatic transmission cooler hook up is completely wrong. The XJS uses a metric, o-ring fitting -- the be cool comes with npt fittings. The mechanic had to order another set of adapters to make the fittings work -- causing more down time and additional expense. Similarly, the air bleed system is different from stock Jaguar and requires yet another set of adapter fittings! It's disappointing that an expensive, made in the USA radiator failed once -- but twice in such a short time period is unacceptable.
