Hi Ya, i have a leaking bathroom radiator. the water is coming from just under the valve cover and when tightened the leaking is reduced but doesn't stop completely. the radiator has two pipes going into the same side (right hand side) and the valve sits on top of these. there is no valve or pipe on the other side. how do i go about stopping this leak, or do i need a new radiator??? thanks alot.

Either service or replace the valve.

Depending on the valve make and model you may or may not have to drain the system first.
