SORTED! I re bled the cooling system paying particular atention to the heater and now it runs at 80 constantly even during hard driving. I must have had air sumwhere in the system probably the heater. All is well now, just to many bank holiday motorists!

Have looked on the caterham site and the temp senders dont cost that much so fitting a new one wont hurt

"stars" on the front and rear wings are caused by stones being thrown up. to soften the blow thus stoping any damage my arches have been lined with rubber sheeting fixed to the underside

i jaked the front of the car up undid the bleed screw on the top of the radiator and ran the car till warm. toped up water bottel. all hoses including the heater hoses were hot but i didnt open the heater valve. do u think there is an air lock sumwhere?

My k series has developed a high water temp reading. When the engine warms up top hose gets warm then at around 80-90 the thermostate opens bottom hose warms up, all hoses get hot and about 90-100 fan comes on and cools engine down. all good stuff., but this is in the garage! Out on the rd the temp gauge gets into the red ! fitted new thermostat same problem. cant see any leaks and no water in oil or using water. could my temp sender be at fault? i`m open to suggestions.

my cooling troubles returned on our return journey, driving down the M5 the car constantly ran to hot again! is it air travelling round the system or a thermostat not opening properly? I can hear the fan coming on.

I have a 12 yr old s3 car and i seem to be geting free play in the suspension bushes as the handling is a little erratic, and over bumps the car makes knoking noises and jumps around. Am i right in thinking the bushes may need replacing? where do i get the right ones from and how big a job is it? I`m thinking of doing this over the winter.
