Hi, I've been a forum member for a little while now and I have a complaint about the Fluidyne Radiator company that I thought you all should hear. Here is the story. About 2 weeeks ago I was checking out my car(90tII) and noticed that the bottom end tank on my stock radiator was leaking. So being the penny pincher that I am I searched for the best priced, best performing, aluminium, aftermarket radiator I could find. After a few phone calls and a couple of hours of searching I decided to go with a Fluidyne radiator. The same day I placed an order via the internet through Absolute Radiator. They were the only company showing that it was in stock. 2 days later(Mon.) I get a phone call from thier represntative saying that the radiator won't get to me for at least 15 days because Fluidyne is in the middle of moving thier manufacturing plant. Since I had already placed the order and decided that the wait wasn't too long I told them that I would wait. After waiting for 2 weeks, I decided to call Absolute Radiator today(29 Jul). When they answered they told me that Fluidyne hadn't sent them my radiator and they wouldn't see it for 7 to 10 business days. I think this is totally stupid https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/angry.png . Why do you shut down radiator production in the middle of the summer? Well I guess the moral of this story is not to order a Fluidyne radiator in the middle of the summer! So my question to you guys is does any one know where I can get an aftermarket aluminium radiator for a good price? Also do they have it in stock? Thanks for your help.

it could maybe be that the people selling you your radiator are feeding you lies?

there is a thing i noticed. if you need something right away you always have to pay more :( if you are willing to wait a while you can always find a good deal but it might take up to a whole month to get a part rather than two days..... it all depends how much you want to spend and how much time you have unfortunately....

to: ThirdGenrx7: They are not feeding me lies. I got a phone call today from a representative at Fluidyne who confirmed the story my supplier was giving me. I wish they were lieing so that could go somewhere else and get one faster.
TO: Vosko: you're right. This always seems to happen when I want something right away. I'm trying to be very patient with these people. Unfortunately we all know how our cars don't like excessive heat. I just wish that I could do more to make them move quicker. TO: 13BACE: Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to wait. I willjust take it easy on my car. Besides I can't afford to buy 2 radiators. I Know you are suggesting that I just go with the Mazdacomp but I really like the Fluidyne one and want to stick with it. |
