lol, my dad was kayaking last saturday and i got the pickup on the sunday, hed left one of his gloves on the dash and it was frozen solid.
was this time last year i was doing the auto electrics and coach works, cars coming in with waterleaks and the spare wheel well being a big solid lump of ice, if you where careful you could lift it out in one piece have a big spare wheel well mould

hmm mine has behaved istelf impecably so far..... it started (just) in -2 after being buried at hearthow, and i know the reason that it wont start well atm is because it has only 1 working glow plug dammit....

It id however have frozen screen wash, even tho it is a very neat mixture, so i suspect the lines rather than the bottle....

oh and cooant is going some-where..... and not visibly leaking :'(

I've been not too bad with the 45.

Just usual frozen screen wash. Inside door handle on drivers side popped the rod off, had to open the window to get the door open. Not easy when it freezes shut .
