Well it has been a month and i have been out the uk for almost all of it....

However the coolant issue was sorted in 10mins of matt gettin it on ramps.. the hoseclip had failed but only after the system presurized and the stat had opened... it would pop open a few teeth only every time you tightened it - once it got hot.. the little ******...


However the good news kinda stops there... ther EML light is on again, and it is slow starting again - after matt fixed it with sorting the timing out.... the temp gauge has packed in, the air con is flat again.....

On the plus side tho the 'bit of pipe' for the relief system turned up.. but did not fit - looking at the pic of it, it was not as i had requested.... so Matt will butcher it and get that stuff all sorted....

had to drive a brand new corsa to gatwick the other week and it was hellish... just no poke; tho more from a 1.2 that i expected tbh!
