Re: 2.4 in a 2.3?

Hi sorry didn't get my email to say anyone replied! Mike what do you have to do to deal with overboost? I was thinking green injectors and a remap, the 2.3 is knackered but the 2.4 t5 I can get!

Re: V70R coolant headache.

I have no sign of the head going at all but the coolant still is bubbling over, I have just had the coolant temp sensor coming up as a fault, can this cause these issues?

Re: V70R coolant headache.

Wow quick replies, I'm hoping its not head gasket as its replacement, engine auto box and turbo, I will try and test for gases but if it isn't what else could it be, water seems to be flowing, it had rad weld months ago as a pin prick in rad with no issues but its just had fresh coolant?

V70R coolant headache.

Right, I have spent hundreds on my beloved car, all was going great until I popped a hose, the upper heater hose, I also changed the rad pipe under this, the expansion tank as it was warping through age, cap and thermostat.
