easypops 8 Posted March 19, 2007 hi all, not posted for what seems like ages, moved house early jan to get a driveway for the car, still not moved in :( anyway i'll get to the point, when i was parking the car a few days ago steam started coming out of the bonnet (not good) i was thinking burst hose hopefully. but it turns out the resevior screw lid thing had came off but i'm quite sure i tightened it when i last topped it up. (found it also :) ) so the question is is this a symptom of something bad? or am i worrying about nothing? also i dont think the temp guage hasnt moved since, but i havent been stuck in traffic so not sure. any advice you can offer will be great cheers all martin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonnyboyo 0 Posted March 22, 2007 Never been stuck in traffic? You wanna bring it down to Cardiff :lol: As above, the cap does undo to relieve pressure. Maybe get a garage to check the coolent system out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
