That will be next task, yes, thanks for comment DG. I once tried to open the cap after drive but coolant started to boil out so I stopped and closed. That made me think that it is HG-case as so much gas in the system. Have to try again.

You would expect it to flash boil if you remove the cap whilst its hot, the system is under pressure so even at 90degC coolant temperature, it will hit over 100 instantly when the pressure drops

Took the very dirty & caked in mud Range Rover to the illegals for a spruce up £15 & 20 minutes later gleaming like new..👍

Changed oil and filter, pollen filter, new dipstick neck, and a couple of other things on my newest addition R5 VW Toureg😀

Is this an addition to the range, Rae, or you you getting rid of one of the fleet?

Managed to free up the door hinges on the Hereford, well enough to get the doors to close on the locks. Tomorrow I will fill a bin bag with rotten carpet, trim panels and broken glass.

So it just keeps getting more and more🤣😵‍💫

My Touareg is the longest I've ever kept a car, 10 years and still looks like the day I bought it but with nearly 190 k on the dial now, I'm loathe to part with it as it's been a cracker

To be honest I e never been a fan of that type of vehicle but I’m really enjoying it😀

Ours was bought as a caravan tug, it's one of the few with 3.5 T towing ability although it doesn't do a lot of that nowadays

Mines a 2008 series 2 R5 5 cylinder, feels like it would pull a house down! Heaven knows what a chipped 5.0 V10 model would be like😱😱😱

Yours is 174 bhp, mine has a few more ponies added(210 ish) but still not as quick as the V6 version.
The V10 has massive torque but not that big a bhp, still fun though and sounds great

They do a 6.0ltrW12 petrol, but it comes with tanker🤣🤣

Played musical cars again, Countryman back in the workshop, Hereford in mums garage and panel van on the drive. Will be able to crack on and try to get it driving for the show in April, first thing is get the immobilizer chip!

[ronnyd]

Gave it a much needed clean. Actually, the fact that it kept raining on and off, helped to make the job that much easier. Will be baby sitting great grandson later so it will just get filthy again.

Had a hospital appointment in Peterborough today I know that the parking is terrible there so took the little Yaris Cross rather than the RR , lovely drive both ways and 62mpg  👍

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

I had an appointment at Romford hospital today.
84 mile round trip for a five minute appointment. Blood pressure, blood tests and MRSA test prior to being admitted next Weds to have my head fixed.
Might wake up speaking Swahili but will cross that bridge if I come to it. 
Going to have platinum in my head, so a bit worried about swmbo trying to pull it out through my ear while Im asleep.
