Feeling sorry for herself as she hasn't got shiny shoes, or new shoes.

Getting sorted on Saturday fella. Won't know for sure if it's the fix though until a week or two later (see if coolant is dropping).

thoroughly clean the area surrounding the bits you are replacing... then look for water deposits on the area after a drive... should be easy to spot

Advantage of G12+ is you get lovely pink deposits around any leaks. Thats how I found my radiator was seeping.

I had one bad experience chuff.  :grin:

Will do Guy, was going to clean it up. Trog, I use Halfords pink crap, it had deposited nicel around the leak though so should be an easy spot if it still leaks.
