Had a pinhole in my radiator a few years back. I got some JB weld and patched the hole, haven't had a problem for the last two years.

So sorry to hear. Wishing you and GF a full and speedy recovery.

The old Garmin is out of date and due to be replaced. Just wondered what everyone is using these days, also mounting so you can actually see the darn thing in daylight. Appreciate any and all replies in advance.

I like it and might be time for the 05 non ABS to go on the block.
