Hi, has anyone got a diagram of the coolant system for a 2005 facelift 1.8 K series. I've replaced some of the hoses and my vehicle seems to have a long hose from the low water level sensor, across the back of the engine and around to the front and attach to a fitment directly underneath the thermostat - (see attached image). Others seem not to have this fitment under the 'by-pass' thermostat - if so, where does their hose from the low water sensor go to and attaches to what? Any help would be appreciated. And finally, can't seem to find a version of the Rave manual that relates to the 1.8 K series facelift. Thanks

So does that indicate that all the pictures I've found of the by-pass system, as per the enclosed image, are the 'upgrade' kit and only those factory installed with the coolant level sensor had the additional fitting for the return hose from the coolant level sensor?

The level sensor only came along after the FL1 facelift. There wasn't a light on the dash before that.
So only facelift k series had the piping you have. The picture added above is of the early PRT (cream PRT casing) which didn't have the level sensor pipework in place.
