Hooray for problems.....In yesterdays heat, I managed to boil the coolent......I let the car idle for a min (as I always do), but when I turned the engine off, heard this weird bubbling sound coming from drivers side under bonnet. Opened up the bonnet, and the coolent in the overflow tank was boiling :shock: I then left the car on (but engine off) with the radiator fans going for 2 mins in the hope that it would bring the temperature down, which it did.....I really hope PWR makes my radiator soon...

Probably a good thing. You top radiator looks like it's toast soon anyway.

Haha when I looked at pics of the car (before I bought it) I though the radiator had rust on it....Then found out it uses plastic end tanks...Apparently the new radiator will be here next week, so problems should go away soon. Ive found that if its a warm day, after letting it idle for a bit, turn the engine off but let the radiator fan run for a minute helps things a lot
