Right.
Can someone please give me some pointers as i brought my 2003 TF to enjoy and have fun and all its been is problems and i cant be bothered with it much Longer
I brought it last year and not long after having it the head gasket went and liners dropped. It has been fully repaired, New head gasket, Liners have been shimmed and runs and drives lovely. I have installed new radiator from LE 500 and stainless steal pipes.
However my problem arises when the car idles in traffic or is stationary. Basically it doesn't over heat but the coolant rises and rises so much that it comes up to the top and stays there whilst the fan is on. As soon as the fan cuts out there is suddenly a big gurgle and the water level suddenly drops back to where it should be. let it idle again water starts rising fan cuts in fan cuts out an water level drops again. it does this over and over again. I appreciate coolant does rise but its basically bursting out the header tank. I have been told a new PRT, a blockage, an airlock.......
Please any one with any knowledge or any help would be greatly appreciated as really want to be out enjoying it rather than it sitting in the garage
Thanks in advance
