The radiator in my DC4 has started weeping between the top tank and the core. What is the best solution? New radiator or should I get it repaired? Does anyone know the most economical way to do it? Thnks

I would just get a new radiator.
I was going to repair mine, I took it out and the bottom tank was leaking as well.
Look around for a used item, I got lucky and bought one off here for $50
Contact Sydney Auto Dismantlers. Do not go to Honda or a mechanic because you'll get ripped off hardcore. Honda quoted me something like $1300 for a new radiator or $600 to repair. Got one from Sydney Auto Dismantlers for about $70 and did the swap over with a friend in about 30 mins.

Yeah thanks, thought as much. Knew Honda prices would be out of this world but hoped there might be a good after market supplier. I live in Mackay in Queensland so the choices aren't going to be that large here unless I get something shipped up from down south.
Or get a Koyo OEM replacement new. Trouble with the ones in the wreckers is you don't know if it's almost choked or if it'll spring a leak again 6 months down the line.
ive got a radiator pulled from a Dc2 you can have for $50 plus shipping.
