Twin Peaks Auto Repair offers radiator repair and replacement at our Longmont shop. If your vehicle is losing coolant, running hotter than usual or showing signs of a radiator problem, contact us to discuss an inspection and the appropriate repair.
Request an appointment or call (303) 772-0035. Tell us your vehicle’s year, make and model, what you have noticed and whether a temperature warning has appeared.
Have coolant loss and temperature changes checked
The radiator is part of the engine’s cooling system. Problems with that system can affect how the engine manages heat, but a temperature concern does not identify the failed part on its own. Finding the cause comes before choosing a repair.
When you contact the shop, describe any of these concerns:
- Coolant levels that keep dropping.
- A puddle or wet area near the front of the vehicle.
- A temperature gauge reading higher than normal.
- A coolant-temperature warning or steam from the engine compartment.
- Visible radiator damage or residue noticed while the engine was cold.
Let us know when the problem occurs—while idling, in traffic, at road speed or after parking—and whether any recent work has been done. These details help explain the concern you want checked.
Radiator service based on inspection findings
Radiator repair and replacement recommendations depend on the source of the problem and your vehicle’s condition. We can discuss the findings, the proposed work and the parts needed before you decide how to proceed.
Share any previous overheating incidents or cooling-system repairs when arranging service. Replacing a radiator should address an identified problem; it should not be treated as an automatic answer to every overheating symptom.
Related maintenance and overheating information
Our guide to common causes of engine overheating explains why coolant loss and temperature changes deserve attention. For ongoing care, see our factory-scheduled maintenance information and follow the guidance for your particular vehicle.
If your concern is heat inside the cabin, mention that when you call. Our vehicle heating service page covers that separate symptom.

Radiator repair and replacement FAQs
The source of the leak, the radiator's construction and its condition determine the options. A hose or connection problem may need a different repair from a damaged radiator. Inspection helps establish whether repair is practical or replacement is the appropriate choice.
If the engine is overheating, pull over as soon as it is safe and switch the engine off. Do not remove a radiator or coolant reservoir cap while the system is hot. Follow your vehicle's owner's manual and arrange roadside assistance if needed rather than continuing to drive an overheating vehicle.
No. The radiator helps remove heat from engine coolant; the A/C condenser is part of the refrigerant system that cools the cabin. Although these components may sit near each other, their service needs are different. For weak cabin cooling, see our automotive air-conditioning service page.
The vehicle, radiator design, access and any related work affect the estimate and appointment length. Contact Twin Peaks Auto Repair with your vehicle details and symptoms so we can discuss diagnosis, the proposed repair and scheduling.
