Davemate Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 It might not be south enough for you,Herts rads Hertford 01992 558589I think it was £70-£80 to recore my herald rad, the original had two core and he put in a three core matrix.

Tim Bancroft Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Feltham Radiators, on the same estate as Moss at Hanworth.Brilliant company who are very helpful. At the end of the M3, so relatively easy to get to and back from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Thanks Tim, I went up to Feltham, as you say very helpfull. I took the rad I originally had fitted with me to see if they could fit a new core and it turns out it's had one at some point. The pitch of the vertical tubes are a lot closer together than the one on the car. They wanted over £200 to fit what they call an "S" type core which is a bit out of my budget, so I may just swap them over again now that I have got an accurate capilary temperature gauge to make a comparison.Glen.
