Alumotor Wasserkühler

[giuffre]

Hello, any experience with AVA, AKS DASIS etc. replacement radiators available on Ebay for CX, since Valeo, Sofica, etc. are no longer available? CX Basis also offers only aftermarket replacements. The engine is 2.0 Alumotor with aircon.

do you really need to replace it?
there are several companies which are able to fix old ones....

kind regards

Thank you for the reply. Well it's 32 years old, has a small leak in the second spot already, it's all copper but recoring it costs way more than a new one, from what I gathered. I hear AVA is quite ok. I guess AVA or AKS DASIS is what CX Basis offer, since they persistently avoid telling me the name of the manufacturer, other than it's an aftermarket replacement, except the price is double compared to other sources.

My 22trs has Dasis, bought 3 years ago and works fine, price was less than 70 Euro. I guess ist costs little more then 70 Euro now. kfzteile24.de

Yes, it seems both AVA and DASIS are ok, the CX Basis 200e price led me to believe there are much better aftermarket replacements available :) Thank you.

Please let us know, that all items where really available (with 2-4 week order) & fitting was without any troubles! (maybe waterpump, too?)

Just fill in G11 (blue) -type coolant, only.

Best Regards, A.

All 22TRS-20 with aircon radiators disappeared from Ebay a few days ago (more than 20 were available from various sellers). I found AVA here http://www.kuehlervertrieb.de/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=17&products_id=13578cmanufacturers_id=17&bmodell_id=273&atyp_id=2532&spezityp_id=2532&spezi_id=3

The original radiator has a bracket for the aircon condenser in mid bottom, plus a few headless screws go through both the radiator and condenser between the tubes. As for the waterpump, I managed to find NOS SKF VKPC 83626 which is no longer being made. Quality alternative is HEPU P831.
