  13. Funny you should mention the water pump as mine has been making that wishy washy?? noise when its ticking over this might be the pump but g60s make so many noises! its difficullt to tell i was wondering if the slider control isnt moving the air controll flap properly is there a way of setting this up? is the water pump an easy job on g60's the thermo was supposed to be a charger out job but it was just a case of moving a bracket for the pas in the end are any special tools needed?

  19. garage called back the water is at the right temp 87 deg so there doing the sender and going to flush the system through to see if the matrix is blocked to be honest they are sounding pretty confused :roll: they did the ball joints but it needed a new wheel bearing and flange i suppose they mean the hub?? im just glad they found that problem as the handling was really bad torque steering all over the place. hope im going to get a phone call tomorrow saying its all fixed and was very cheap!!!!! oh well got my private plate through today cant wait to put it on :D

  21. cool ill check mine ive got as slight spluttering think it was the ht leads as since their replacement ts gone but worth checking anyway
  22. yeah but that doesnt explain the heater not working its going into the garage tomo there pretty good with corrados gonna get the ball joints done at the same time as well seems to be the cause of most peoples knocking sounds oo err!!
  23. dammit looks like its the garage :( if the heater worked id think the sender was duff as the fan still comes on as expected so its hot enough in the rad how would i check to see if the heater control was opening properly??
  24. hello there mate you still got that shelf? if your just gonna bung it ill have it as its cut to size already and with those subs cant fit a std shelf. BIll
