The one day i chose to drive to work... (going straight out for weekend after) and the poxy thing breaks. i was out in it last night and it was fine, bloody car. Quote
ZMANALEX Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Unusual for the stat to fail. Have you checked the usual potential overheating issues? Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 17, 2017 Author Posted February 17, 2017 Unusual for the stat to fail. Have you checked the usual potential overheating issues? Nah, but the cars done 140k now and i didnt replace the stat when i done the rebuild for unknown reasons?! i thought the builder ordered it with my bits. but its been blowing cold until 1200rpm lately, now its just blowing cold, maybe it could be the water pump although that was replaced during rebuild Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 17, 2017 Author Posted February 17, 2017 Could also be that. I did bleed the system just before xmas Quote

RobPhoboS Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 http://www.eurocarpa.../car-thermostat link just goes to ecp You have to tap it in yourself. It's a bloody stupid website thinking it's being clever. I wanted some cheap copper core spark plugs but it insisted I typed that shite in Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 17, 2017 Author Posted February 17, 2017 tap what in? when i set the car to my reg it says no products found... Quote
gsexr Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 ring em mate they should get you one on the VOR Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 17, 2017 Author Posted February 17, 2017 I've ordered one now, i'm just gonna remove the spring etc.. off of it and see if it flows. if not its gonna be an air lock or the waterpump (which i've just found out we share the same water pump as the smart for 2 lol) Quote
Tricky-Ricky Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 tap what in? when i set the car to my reg it says no products found... I just selected the car, and year and part type and it came up with the thermostat, stupid linking is rubbish! Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 17, 2017 Author Posted February 17, 2017 well its not the thermostat lol just took it off, wedged it open, car runs cool for ages now, but still no hot air so im guessing air lock! but i cant really sit at 3k rpm in the work carpark lol so hopefully i can get it home at 4 and it wont blow up on me, if it does... part outttt lol Quote
