2010 RX 350. Radiator leaking from plastic piece coming out of radiator that cap goes on. For 2007-2009 models they sell a separate piece called a neck that you can replace. Anyone know if I can replace the plug at the end of the next that's leaking, or the only option is a new radiator? Looks like a round plug about the size of a half dollar. I can see there is a round rubber gasket. Has anyone ran into this and been able to fix?
Thank you in advance
Thank you for the link and your comments. It is so strange that nobody knows if twisting the plastic plug will prevent leaking. One guy posted that he twisted the plug to stop leaking, but another guy stated that it is a plug and is not threaded. I tried to twist this plastic plug (w/o pushing too hard), but it seems not possible. It will be very interesting to try unscrewing this plastic part on the old / removed radiator. My RX has only 69K and I just hesitate to replace the radiator at this low millage... Anyway, if I need to replace the radiator what brand would you recommend ? Thanks
