Thank you so much for these guides! I will test the cooling fan when I get the car back..theyve had it for 22 hours..

Update!

Garage done a pressure test and it seemed to be leaking water from the cooling pipes. Apparently its corroded in. I think I need 2 of these? And also a silicon hose with bleed screw/valve.

I was told to find a kv6 metal cooling pipe if I could as John Grose may not be able to get the parts.

I was quoted 77 for cooling pipes and 41 for silicon and 80 for labour.

He doesnt think its the thermostat because theres heat in the car and its leaking water from the pressure test.

He said the pipes are like the letter L?

Could the pipes be the issue then?
