997.1 third radiator

Post by jenks80085 »

Hi,

I have a third (central) radiator on my 2006 C2S tiptronic - any idea why?

Is this something added to tiptronic cars? I don't think a previous owner had it added as the history is pretty detailed and I can't see anything in there about adding one (to help avoid bore scoring)...

thanks

It's a very common retrofit as the parts are just over £100

If it is the same as the Boxster it is standard fit either for S or Tip models. Common retrofit for the lower spec models
