Is there more than one type of radiator fitted to the omega range. Is the rad fitted to the auto's different to the manual transmission model?

Rob isn't necessarily correct  Wink. Most autos's have an ATF oil cooler built into the driver's side of the rad, but I believe some later cars have a separate air/ATF cooler in front of the a/c condenser ie right at the front of the car.  Thumbs Up!

Thanks for tha advice. I have been supplied with the wrong rad now 4 times! By an independent supplier. Need a rad for a 2001  2.2 auto. Dont really want to pay main dealer prices. However at this rate i think i will have to bite the bullet.
