Hello,
I'm looking to replace my leaking radiator on a '97 Buick Riviera. I put the vehicle info on the Napa website and got one result back for a radiator that goes for $235 or so and on the O'reilly website for one for $155. Now, there is a big price different and there is also a difference in size. The one from O'reilly is about 2" taller and a little thicker. What I wanted to ask is shouldn't the size be exactly the same or am I looking at 2 different radiators for different cars? And should I go for the most expensive one?
You may be looking at different years. Depends on what you need. Some radiators have oil and transmission coolers built in the radiator tanks thus costing more
