Here is a pic of my rad leak that KH told me was typical.
You can see the drip & that it has been going on for a while by the staining on the alloy.

Not had a new rad before and car now 4 years old so out of warranty as anyone had to pay themselves for a new radiator.

The Consumer Rights Act allows the user to claim up to 6 years for a latent defect in a vehicle & on your side is the known history of many Rad changes to CX cars, confirming a latent design / material defect

So Mike, stand your ground, you shouldn't be paying !

Thermal shock. Normaly with a new radiator and the software update it should be ok. The software update has to be done since 1 year . On my car the radiator was changed but the software update was not yet existing .

Out of warranty I would ring the factory I think they will be very fair with you, give them a chance to rectify the problem they have so far with everyone. Em
