Thanks for letting me know. Have you got a bull bar?

I am being lazy and read as many pages as I could, but have you got a radiator in good condition? If so how much would you like for it and how quick could you get it sent to me? Cheers.

I think if the new pipes don't have them, that is poor design as the bleed valve is great to have there. I will have to call allterrain in St. Leonards on Sea on Monday and see what they say, I was planning on driving down, but I don't think my car would make it all the way lol.

Thanks Freelaner. I can't see a bleed valve though on the Outlet or the inlet hose listings

As part of my polava with getting the head gasket done, I need to replace both the inlet and outlet pipes on the heater matrix. 1 of them goes to the temp sensor housing, and the other has the bleed valve in it. I am really struggling to track these pipes down. Does anyone know where to get...

Big Thank You to all your help soo far. To let you know I have ordered a Reisse Head Gasket set, I have also Ordered a new Water Pump, I will re-use the cambelt kit as it was done 550 miles ago, I have also ordered an Oil Stone, Flushing Oil and 2 Oil Filters, and am now hunting for 2 NEW...

Wanna do a swap? lol

cambelt kit, head bolts, water pump, all done but the hose I am on a bout has split but the rest needs doing I think.

Should I sand down the little bumps on that corner or are they meant to be there?

Top bit on this isn't quite right. I know the first replacement gasket failed before the car was returned to me and that time it ****ed water out of the head. After they replaced that gasket they then found a tiny oil leak from the exact same place the water came from. They gave the car back to...

That will probably mean a 3 day job for me then lol. I'm not just slow in the head lol what should I do about the bumps in the engine block?

Is doing the head gasket a long job?

Is it worth me getting the engine block skimmed?

Forgot to add a water pump got added to the bill plus other parts I can't remember off the top of my head.

This place is mostly a 1 man band and is mainly a Mondeo breakers / repairers but the guy said about how many of these K-Series HG's he had done and that he could do it all in for £450, but the bill grew as it became more apparent that my friend I bought it from got ripped off when she bought...

I hated the colour lol and as much as I love the 3 door models I found it very painful to get the seatbelt from soo far behind me, the faults were Temp gauge broken, car was stiff on full lock in both forward and reverse, but it is still going.

I know, this is a very hard lesson learnt. And only way I can see out of it is to diy the job with my friend. I love the car.

No stamped history either. You can see the situation I am in.

I got a receipt but figures don't quite match the actual cost and no VAT was shown as charged.

The other thing as well which was the end to the argument of them repairing the car free, was apparently they did a head gasket test using a blue liquid with the coolant that stayed blue, but the next day when I went back as I text the guy who did the work saying I think the head gasket has...
