Radiator Repair in Scarborough
We confirm whether the radiator is the actual leak source before replacing anything.
Signs your vehicle needs this service
- Coolant dripping from the front of the vehicle
- White or green residue on the radiator
- Overheating in traffic but not on the highway
- Bent or damaged radiator fins after road debris

- Cooling system pressure test
- Radiator, cap, hose and transmission cooler inspection
- Fan and shroud operation check
- Radiator replacement with correct-specification coolant

Why this matters
The radiator removes heat the engine cannot handle on its own. A partly blocked or leaking radiator often works fine on the highway and then overheats in stop-and-go traffic—right when you are stuck.

Radiator Repair — questions we hear often
Can a radiator leak be sealed?
Stop-leak products often cause bigger blockages later. We recommend a proper repair or replacement.
Why does it overheat only in traffic?
That pattern usually points to airflow—fan, shroud or a partly blocked radiator core.
Do you use the correct coolant type?
Yes. Mixing coolant types causes gelling and corrosion, so we refill with the specification your vehicle requires.
