Nice one mate, so have they refunded the deliverey costs? You could blag it & tell them i needed them for a job last saturday & cough up some compensation ;) Either way thanks again for sorting it :cool: James

£1500 is pretty good in that case then, more ideal if its something that you are doing every day ie full time job.. prob not so much for me as i plan to come to the persons house & etc.. they might have another option, will have to email them

That aint cheap lol, although cant you just pay the £90 for liability cover? Cheers for the link matt, will have a looky later ;) , any word on poxy parcel force? this is not the first time they have let me down

So you reckon i should just try instal a new head gasket kit & chuck some new oil in & see how it goes?

power steering pump could be shot, as when turning the pump is used & if it was seizing then it would just lock the belt up which is linked directly to the motor = stalling

Oh & another thing, if it can be fixed how can i remove the shite in the motor, the mayonase on the filler cap that is, would just an oil change do the job if the head can be fixed?

basically came back from my gf's early yesterday morning & driving along i notice the temp light come on.. lil bit further on it gets higher, at this point i started to worry as i was going along county roads & could not see my self parking on blind bends on natinal speed limit roads,so i wack...
