Yea belts got changed aswell.

The thermostat failed and the gasket went. Its had a reconditioned engine at some point before i bought it so they probably didn't do a very good job.

Took it to a little renault specialist and it was the head gasket in the end. All done and running like a dream

No never had any problems with it atall and not had to put any extra coolant in since its last service 5 months ago. Think im going to take it somewhere else as it shouldn't be that hard to figure it out!!

Yea the climate control was working fine. Im not sure about the sensor but it did cook off most of the coolant and was bubbling when i opened the reservoir. Looked like there was a airlock aswell because some coolant flowed back into the reservoir when i opened it.

I had a new water pump fitted when i had the belts changed a few months ago so hope its not that.

My 2003 172 overheated on a short drive last week and cooked off most of the coolant. The garage have had a look and they cant find the problem. They have changed the thermostat and the head gasket looks ok. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
