    Hey everyone, I’ve got a bit of a situation with my 2018 Ferrari GTC4 Lusso. It’s only got 2100 miles on it, but I've just discovered a pinhole leak in the radiator. The dealership gave me a quote of $9,000 for parts and labor, which seems pretty steep. Has anyone here dealt with something similar? I’m looking for recommendations on where I might find a replacement radiator or if there's a better repair option out there. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Did you run into something? Only caveat before I launch into the following...

    What a joke that your dealer didn't even try to offer goodwill on a car that's still within the 7 year, and with only 2100 miles. I'd escalate that with Ferrari NA, $9k is nuts and your dealer, assuming Ferrari of Ontario, is out of their minds here.

    Thanks for reaching out. Regarding your question, I didn't encounter any issues with the car except for a minor pinhole leak that's causing a bit of coolant to spill on the floor. The dealership recommends replacing the radiator, but I didn't think to inquire whether they might cover part of the cost under Goodwill. A $9000 charge for a radiator is pretty outrageous, even for a Ferrari.

    Fully agree. That's an absurd number. Good luck, brother.

    Parts cost is $1250, and I don't believe it requires full removal of the radiator fans. The part number is 277227, and the stealerships suck. Good luck

    There are 3 radiators and I'm uncertain which one you're having issue with. My guess is it's the engine oil radiator, as the workshop manual has what I believe to be a high torque setting that is incorrect, resulting in damage. I believe all 3 radiators have fairly open access without removing a bunch of parts. You can search the part numbers below, but often times Eurospares is the lowest priced. Good luck
