Im running a standard 1.4 one in an astra, it manages fine just now, unsure how hot itl be in summer but previous owner ran it fine. Is there any room in corsas for a standard rad or is an aftermarket one needed

corsa turbo diesel radiators are thicker so probably better. i run a standard 1.4 sport one and never had any problems with it at all. had an xe corsa for nearly 8 years

Lol I see what your saying but I don't want to force water through a rad so much it can't handle it and will pop hoses under pressure I've seen it before I've not heard of one in the Vauxhall world. But bigger is better as they say lol
