				If it has a plastic top and is leaking along the joint with the main metal metal part then bin it and get a new one off ebay.
Dead easy to fit a new one...even I managed it (see the factsheet in the members area).
If in doubt chuck it out....the consequeces are too dire and radweld didn't fix mine.
good luck

				Most rad shops will do a free test for you.

				Get it fixed quick and don't drive it till you do. Could cost you loads if you overheat.
Yet another customer for the coolant loss alarm which is now finished and as we speak, prices being finalised.

				Agree about radiator needs renewing and all coolant system needs checking Have you any comeback from seller, 2 weeks is not long to have owned your Bongo and problems arising so soon
