Time for a radiator replacement. This weekend while doing an oil change on my 04 LX470 I got a whiff of coolant, and after an inspection, I noticed the resivoir was bone dry and my radiator was low on coolant. I also noticed the radiator is turning a brownish color on the top, and also seeping coolant on the bottom, which was also dry. I ordered new hoses, clamps, a new cap and a thermostat from my local dealer.
What I'm having a hard time deciding, is which radiator to pull the plug on and install. I've read and know Denso, Spectra, Koyo are all options, but which one is going to have more reliability?
I'm leaning towards the Koyo radiator in the link provided, but it says it will only fit 98-02 models, and I've read elsewhere it will fit 98-07 models. Can anyone help out?
