Hi Guys,
Need to replace o/s radiator on my 2003 4s. Got the bumper and the relevant covers off today. Only the hoses holding it in place now. Been trying to shop around for a new rad, but not having any joy.
Does anyone by any chance know the PN for this part?
The cheapest I have found so far is £290 all in from forestfine.co.uk. Is this a good price?
Cheers!
RH Water radiator for a C4S is 996.106.132.72 (replaces 996.106.132.70) and the Porsche list price is £316.80+VAT. Try Euro Car Parts, and go for the Eis equivalent.
From buying from Forestfine in the past, I've usually found them the cheapest once vat and delivery has been added. Also they tend to be OEM parts e.g Bosch, Behr
Thanks for the replies.
A friend in the trade has managed to source an OE equivalent for £138 inc. vat. Will be here sometime tomorrow.
However, I was pleasantly surprised that my local opc, after some negotiation matched the porsche-apart price I was quoted of £255 inc. vat! Not bad at all considering their original quote was £369!
Sorry guys,
Didn't update the thread at the time cos I was so pi**ed off! The rad I got was for a 'normal' Carrera and didn't fit my 4S. Ended up paying £252 from my local OPC. The one I got from my friend was from Andrew Page, a car parts distributor that only deals with the trade. Not sure if they're national, but, if you know anyone in the trade you could ask them to try to source one.
Sorry!
