    hot air only at high revs

    yeah i drained it and refilled with 50/50 blue coolent and water. i followed the guidlines in rave though on refilling.. going back to that cowboy is out of the question, his work is better left forgotten.. im sure he said he fitted a new waterpump, hmm any way to check it?

    hot air only at high revs

    Ok ive followed rave instructions on refilling my cooling system. The thing is ive still not got hot air, it only seems to produce it if i keep the engine at 2500 rpm. any ideas on this? thermostat maybe? Head gasket was replaced about 5 months ago.. I found an empty carton of rad...

    rattle bit like flicking a spring sound

    I get this in my disco also, seems to happen in conjunction with the traction control (td5) It is an odd sound, kinda like flicking a spring or dragging your exhaust on the ground.. Would be interested in the outcome of this one

    nanocom nearby?

    Hey there guys, Just to iron out any issues that this cowboy did when doing this discos headgasket, i would love to plug a nanocom or similar into it to see if he put the injectors back in the right place or not, and if not recode the ecu for me.. Anyone live near me that can give us a hand...
