Not sure if you guys caught this, but MIJ did post a step by step with photos in a PDF format on replacing the 850/70 series radiator.

Came in handy as I did mine yesterday and it took about 2.5 hours with the transmission flush.
Hope that helps anyone reading this thread.

What country are you in? How expensive? Here you can get a radiator for around $230 USD. Not sure what shipping would be.drtrance wrote:( Sigh ) I'm fried.. this is really expensive in my country... and as I see there is no other option but to buy a new radiator... I had a few days ago the same "hairline" crack at the front passenger side...

If Drtrance is in Europe, the box will meet the USPS dimensional requirements and I would "guestimate" approximately US$80-$100 +/- and I paid US$180.00 for my radiator here in Orlando.
If Drtrance is in Asia, the dimensional limits are less than that to Europe so it may not ship to Asia or Soutn America.

I'm actually in central America.
I know this is a very old post but recently got back my account thanks to a very kind moderator.
what I did? Well bought a generic radiator which performed very well until someone tried to move my car using a hydraulic jack with small wheels and broke it!
so once again bought a new one which is performing flawlessly.
Thanks for your help!
