To answer your questions:

I don't know if they removed the cylinder heads but I doubt it very much.
They charged £70 for nothing really.
They didn't really explain properly why HG was a problem.
Yes o rings were used I think when doing thermostat.  Broocie did the thermostat job but only a used transfer pipe was available so I thought this might have been a problem.  Broocie did a great job by the way, the police are very lucky! :y

Thanks for all your advice! :y

Hi everyone.  Had my thermostat done at  the cambelt party and now it's leaking coolant really badly. :'(

Do you think it will be the coming from the thermostat housing or transfer pipe? Or could there be another source?

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can only drive a couple of miles without overheating. :-X



Thanks very much!


Did you replace the gasket between the thermostat casing and engine, if there was one?#

There is a big rubber  O ring and i am certain it would have been fitted :y
