You can just say it - Jon’s car. :rofl No srsly, we fixed it with the hydrolic ram out of the engine hoist. Like new. :shifty

Mine leaked at the barb for the overfill line when I first got it. Cleaned up the fitting, new teflon tape, no problems since. So that part’s true.

The fitment thing I never understood. It says on every vendor’s site: “57mm rad may have fitment issues because its motherbitching huge.” So then people complain on [M3whiners.com](http://M3whiners.com) all day that sure enough, the fitment sucks. :facepalm
