Hello everyone, for the past week I’ve noticed a weird cat piss smell inside my 08 V6 tiburon. I finally popped the hood today searching for the smell and found some fluid splattered all over the engine bay. It looks like the radiator is the source. Would this somehow be what is causing the...

I don't know if my car has always done this as long as I've had it but I notice that after going out for a drive, if I open the bonnet I can smell this aroma which I'm not sure how to describe, it's sort of like the smell of hot air. You're gonna say obviously there will be hot air under the...

Hi everyone, So I have a 2005 Tiburon GT and recently had an overheating in idle issue. I took it to a mechanic and they said my radiator was leaking. They replaced it with a new one and the problem was solved. Then I started having shifting issues few days later (maybe a week). It would delay...

I'm so ****ing frustrated right now. I'm trying to replace my radiator. I can't ****ING get the damn clamps to come off the hoses! Firstly, I can barely get channel locks into such a precarious position. Secondly, when I do manage to sorta-kinda get a grip, they won't budge! Any tips?!

So recently, my radiator fan has not been kicking on when at idle, and my car overheats. I'm wanting to know where the sensor that transmits information to the fans is located. Thanks everyone!

Is the half size civic radiator a good mod? I'm talking about a 2 or 3 row aluminum rad not an oem. I've read a thread in elantraxd about a guy who actually did it and worked great for him and man was there a lot of space in that engine bay after that mod! But he was not boosted, so then I...

I've been talking with a company called Fuku Works about making some radiator hoses, etc for the Tib and haven't been getting very far since they seem to think it would be a small market. Well, after just looking on their FaceBook page, I noticed that they are producing Genesis coupe hoses. I...

So im driving yesterday and happen to look down. Only to see my engine temp gauge at 3/4 the way up. I come to a red light and smoke is pouring out of the engine. Im like WTF. Luckily i was 2min from my aunts house. I pull in an anti freeze is pissing everywhere. Filled up with water and saw it...

So My car just overheated at 5AM on the way to work... It looks like there's a hairline crack in the plastic part of the radiator tank Just below the filler cap. it looks like the coolant is spraying all over, so someone told me that when it starts overheating, to turn on the heat, but when I...

Hello, I'm new to this forum, cars, and my Tiburon (03) lol. I need a new radiator and I was wondering if there is any clear benefit to buying a 100% aluminum radiator as well as silicone hoses to replace the oem ones. I plan on going forced induction in the future. Is it worth the extra $150+...

I have a 2003 V6 GT Automatic. Here's the story on what happened. The transmission had defaulted to third gear about a year ago. I read in a lot of places and have heard from a mechanic that a lot of times they will default to third gear when something else is wrong to avoid damage to the...

Got this the other day and I was quite impressed how well the radiator was packed. First thing to notice is the it is much thicker (dual core radiator) compared to the oem radiator. The whole radiator appears to be man entirely out of aluminum vs the oem which is has plastic end tanks. The...
