Nope,sorry josh man,u need a new rad.Be careful I was reading recently that some of the products for patching can screw up your cooling system.Don't risk this high dollar motor.

I just patched the hole with sodered nylon and water weld. I didnt put anything in the actual rad. Is the rad I leaked ok for a replacement?

Might as well just get a new radiator off of the internet and put it in yourself. It is my experience (not with the S) that most cars over 100k or 10 years need a new radiator eventually .. Considering they dont cost much and almost anyone can put one in.. might as well just get it nd do it yourself
