Dumbass!!
I was mounting my new tranny cooler, and poked a drill bit through the a/c condensor core. All the pressure leaked out.Does anyone know if a radiator repair shop can fix these? If not, whats the best place to buy a new one?

They can't deny you warranty work on unrelated partsbecause of modifications you have done.
I had a dealer tell me that the p/s pump was spinning to slow and he wanted to deny my claim because of the blower sitting on top, no underdrive pulley or anything. He told me that after he replaced the pump he was cutting me off on warranty work.
I was in his shop a couple weeks later getting some lights replaced.
If it looks like you poked a drill bit through it ... then yea, they have rightful cause to deny you, but if you can get them to believe that it just happened one day, then you should be in the clear. You only have to get it passed the service writer ... the hard part will be once it's there and the service manager sees it.

Called a radiator repair shop, they said they'd fix it for $30. I think I'd rather go that route than deal with the dealer. My father-in-law can recharge my system free, so hopefully the repair works.
