There should have been a 'P 'code ask him what it was. if you have a 2004 you have a PRT kit fitted thermo is in the front not at the back like a normal k series.

Ok bud. I'll ask him tomorrow. Don't mean to sound stupid, but what's a PRT kit?

eurorover · 16th May 2011, 23:39

Its a pressure release themostat. it is located in the front just after the bottom outlet of the radiator number 17 on this. It is a sealed unit.

ask the guy you got the car from what garage did the head gasket ...he should know that if the gaset was really done ..as said on the 18t varian the stat sits in the hose at the bottom fron to the right hand side of the car .

The guy that sold the car is conveniently away for the week. My mechanic said there's about 1/2 an inch play in the turbo shaft, and he can send it to Eastlake engines in Essex to be refurb'd for about £500. Does that seem about right??

sounds a bit steep to me , i bought a brand new one for less than £400 give them a call 0844 980 8780 (turbo active)
the part was listed as 765472-1N and is the replacment for a 731320

came brand new in sealed box

this was last year so price might have chaned but give them a call and see

as said though when the turbo shaft went on mine there was masses of smoke and steam out the back

another good pratice is to when changing or reconing your turbo buy new a oil feed pipe and drain pipe, and id advise the oil feed pipe bolt too as this snapped on mine upon removal

Cheers John. I'll ring them in the morning.

Phil63 · 19th May 2011, 09:09

Turbo ordered. £396. It'll be here in the morning. Bargain!!! Thanks John.

Chilljohn · 19th May 2011, 09:26
