started to take her to bits to remove the gearbox.
you might do a lot better if you had some decent tools,not that load of ****e you got in the pics.
Losing coolant on a long run which is confusing the heck outta me considering all the recent work that's been done, so just had a block test & pressure test done, now't wrong with the new HG or block! Once the Mrs has finished work I'm going to by-pass the heater matrix as foot well is a bit damp and ordered a new expansion tank cap too. just to rule those two out as causes.

What engine? Ditto, thermostat I think
Reply aimed at moi?
If so it's a 300TDi, had new stat, water pump & rad fitted when HG was done, but I'd imagine it could be a duff stat. No overheating issues though, all pipes getting hot and coolant is circulating.
A 5 quid socket set that will last a gearbox change is ideal.Me decent tools are in the shed if the cheapies arnt up to it yer silly old goat gaylordyou might do a lot better if you had some decent tools,not that load of ****e you got in the pics.

With halfords card radweld goes from £4.50 to £1.20 I think it was
In that case I'll remove and test the stat this weekend, I bet you the Indy fitted a crappart one instead of the genuine I insisted on:scratching_chin:

If I find a britpart one in there I'll be seeking some money back from the garage seeing as a genuine one is only £7 more to buy!
