[QUOTE="zan, post: 459537, member: 9632"] as engines become more advanced and efficient, they create higher tempratures of heat. almost all cars nowadays use water as a medium to transfer heat and avoid engine from seizing. water is circulate to radiator or tangki air where they flow downwards in small tubes with fins. as car moves faster and with aid of fan (belt driven or thermostatically controlled electric) water temperatures are kept low. the cooling system are made of additional components to maintain optimum operating temperature at all time. they are 1) radiator cap 2) water pump 3) thermostat 4) cooling fan system 5) fan motor (for electric) 6) fan clutch (for belt driven) 7) radiator expansion tank 8) water temperature sensor it is not recommended to use plain water in the system. u must add coolant to prevent rusts which may clogged water flow. old cars like saga/iswara have a radiator assembly which u may need to replace upon piercing or leak. small punctures are repairable but risky as they may leak again.. more modern cars like wira have this plastic casing on top and bottom of the radiator. it may crack after years but easily replaced and cheap too. the centre portion (or tubes) can also be recored upon damage like accident. hope this helps.
