Hi, can anyone give me some pointers? Driving down the motorway at speed and all of a sudden I heard a pop and the temp gauge went through the roof. I pulled over, had a look under the bonnet and the RHS rad top hose had an 18 inch split in it. I managed to get it off the road, did a repair and got home about 3 hours later. Got a new top hose, and thermostat, just went for a drive and literally a mile down the road the needle was in the red again.
Before I fitted the thermostat I flushed the system from the expansion bottle, then stuck the hosepipe through both top hose housings on the rad and there appeared to be no bloackage at all. I did notice though that both the fans on the front of the rad aint turning so checked all the fuses/relays and they seem to be fine. Any ideas anyone?
