Got the water leak sorted today, Replaced the flange on the front of the cylinder head.

Looks like a new header tank is needed as the low water warning light isn't cominng on when the header is empty but comes on when the connector plug is disconnected.

Taking the car for 4 wheel alignment tomorrow as it's pulling left a little.

Here are a few pics.

Had the 4 wheel alignment done today, the front camber and toe were out quite a bit on both the front wheels which has now been sorted.

The rear offside is toeing in a bit too much, probably due to the rear beam bushes needing to be changed  :angry:, so that's gonna be the next job.

it's definately steering a lot straighter now though  :smiley:

It seems it not just the corrado that's gonna be emptying my wallet  :cry:
