That'll do and the price seems decent. If you have a radiator shop nearby check with them to see what they will charge you. You may be able to at least save the shipping cost.

Thanks AK, I will!

Hey- I noticed on Atlantic British that there are two models- one WITH the secondary air injection, and one without.

With: http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/PCC000710.cfm

Without: http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/PCC000650.cfm

Is the second air injection the thing that sticks up above each header, that looks like an old tractor smoke stack? My '04 has them, but this 2000 does not.

Thanks for the tip!!

My truck is in the shop for the very same issue (emptying coolant like it's going out of style). Still haven't heard from the shop. I didn't have any codes register or anything. It merely empties coolant in no time flat (I'm talking less than a mile).

Yay for just a radiator!

Check Rover Connection for some pretty good radiator prices and warranties.

www.autosportunlimited.com and you dont have to pay for shipping.
You also could have gone to Weller Radiator on Chicago Drive in Wyoming and also not paid for shipping.
If you need serious engine work use these guys.

DO NOT use Accurate Engines in Grandville.

I have occasional misfire codes for Cyl 1 and truck is sloowly losing coolant, most probably at the front corner, driver side of the engine. No white smoke or coolant smell in exhaust. Intake manifold heater was already taken care of.
