If you remember the Holden Rodeo ads from 1998, the “One-Tonne Rodeo” jingle may already be stuck in your head. While these discontinued utes may spark some nostalgia, they’re also heavy-duty vehicles made for work and play. If you drive one of these classics, you’ll know it's tough and willing to go the extra mile.

But even cars as rugged as the Rodeo need attention from time to time. Regular servicing and new parts will ensure your Holden Rodeo gets you wherever you need to go. On ageing vehicles like this, the radiator is one part to keep your eye on. It’s an important part of your engine’s cooling system, and if it’s not working correctly, your Rodeo could overheat.

If you think it’s time for a new radiator for your Rodeo, give mycar a call. We can repair or replace any part and make sure your vehicle stays on the road.
