>3.  Where can I get a good cleaning agent for the inside of the radiator?

And another question - why do you think you need a 'cleaning agent' for the
inside of the radiator?  On so young a car, unless it was either driven a
zillion miles already or run for some time with pure (corrosive) water, the
passages from using the factory fill should be in good to excellent shape.
Sure, 2 years is better than 3, but considering you started 3 years ago
with bright shiny new, the condition should be just fine.  I'd just use
soft water to flush the system.  And if the NG900 is like the 9K, with 90%
of the fluid gone per draining, drain, fill and then drain again gets rid
of 99% of the old, with a bare doubling of the waste stream volume.  Not
much point in going beyond that...
