Another Behr vs. Nissens thread...

I was wondering which is better quality as of now, in 2009?
Reason being, I replaced the original radiator in my '95 E320 wagon 4.5 years ago after it failed in the typical way, ie. upper hose bib broke with a new Behr radiator.

So today while changing the fan clutch, I noticed that the driver side plastic tank is leaking where it attaches to the core. I'm kind of bummed that the replacement is failing after only ~80K miles and 4.5 years.

Do you think I just got a bad radiator or is Behr quality not what is used to be? Should I try a Nissens this time?

Thoughts?
