But remember that the OMEGA should have Dex III in it....not Dex II


That's right Mark, I'm surprised that the genuine VX DexIII is NOT red... Dark green ish!!!!  Are other DexIII's red???

Also, read your reply on autobox gaskets last week, use the Locktite stuff!  I assume that's insted of the gaskets and not in addition??

Having had similar problems for some time which were not resolved by changing the Viscous Fan or Water pump, I was able to really check out the latest actions at this weekend on the trip to the Shepley Festival i.e. New Intercooler fan, new Thermostat & blasting air through the radiator (inside to out)
Most of the time maintaine 92.5 deg C occasionally seeing 95 when labouring & a couple of 97.5 s when really labouring up steep Pennine roads. So seems that I may have fixed it although at some point I will flush the Rad through as an additional precaution.
