I think I will, just need a sender unit to work with it

Ok 30 miles on A roads done, temp guage stable at 70% heater working really well, like toasty, and no water loss, also pressure in the system at last. Lets see how it goes.

Ok, update here, I replaced the old thermostat with a 88c bearmach one. The temperature of the engine has now gone up from 1/4 of the gauge to 3/4. The heating is really working and the engine is running fine. There is some pressure as well. Its the first time since having the car that the...

Bit personal :-)

I can confirm a woman 5' 4" fits in the front seat with 2x2 wood.

Thanks Mike, it helps as mine does not have these at all! Just ordered a pair.

Ok; 1 - Thanks I'll get some of them 2 - Yes, its not engine rev related, so I have discounted the engine, its from the front of the car it the last of the annoying noises I have and its high pitched 3 - The other door is not leaking so I'll check is out as Flossie has suggested, at the moment...

Hi, I'm trying to get Jo (90) sorted for the winter and one thing on the list of tasks is to find replacement screws for the dash cover, you know all the plastic parts. Does anyone know the size of the screws, I've google it but you seem to be able to get kits for everything but not the dash...

I had one go like that on the disco locked up the front off side wheel at 50mph. Check the hub has not been buggered.

Zephod, yup got that, I'll check the cap its a plastic one on mine. It will be the 3rd one I have tried when I get one so I'll see if the original was duff the replacement was duff as well with another one. Yup got one of them near the house. After this little thread the only things I can...

ok I have a plastic one.

ok, I replaced the cap once, I'll get another cap, I did replace that as well recently but you never know. Where did you get yours Flat?

Oki dokie, explains why its soft when the engine is cold then.

Ok, but remember I've had a pressure tester on it for hours.

Thats what I thought... So it is the temperature that raises the pressure or pump? I'm into daft questions now because I'm stumped.

Okie's I'll replace that as well. How do you test if the pump is working, or do I assume it would have over heated.

Hi, Ok just chucking this out there, not because I have a problem with it, but to see your views. Its my 200TDI, it runs pretty cold just over the upper dot on the temperature gauge and on a motorway run after 30mins+ at 60+ it creeps the halfway up the gauge, no further. I have no leaks. I...

All back together now so lets see how it goes.

So do I, it is a tiny hole and I just popped a second coat of JB on it. I'll get the car on the road tomorrow and see what happens.

Ok, not a perfect repair, but hopefully it will hold. I cleaned up the block, slapped on the glue and left it for 2 days, you will see its run down the block, I knew this would happen and I could not put the car on it side. But there is about a 3mm cover over the hold and sourounding area.
