Many problems with the fan can be traced to a faulty fan control module located on the DS inner fender. You can test the fan by putting 12 volts to the terminals.
If it is the nipple on the coolant reservoir that is broken then there is a $2 fix for that, people are always leaning on the nipple and snapping it off.
The radiators seem pretty bullet proof from what I have seen.
So where do you get the $2 fix for the nipple? I was told the entire reservoir needed to placed.
