joby 0 Posted December 9, 2007 Have you got an air leak, could be the expansion bottle cap is knackered mine was and it caused no end of problems water spewing everywhere heater not working etc! Even the dealers thought it was the head gasket So i tried a cap, only a couple of quid and it worked, Cheapest option first.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
