Zeezeebaba Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Everything with the car is superb after my trip to HDEV aside from my fans blowing cold air only when stationary and resuming normal service heat wise when on the move. I'm thinking it may be an air lock even though it was bled twice when the coolant was changed. This will be my first port of call but any other input on possible causes would be appreciated.

Payco Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Not sure what the issue is buddy but did you unscrew the cap on the drivers side rear pipe ..You should see some discharge from it.i would turn the car on and give all the pipes a good squeeze as this happened to me last year.Be careful not to loose you fingers in your belt though.

Zeezeebaba Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 I reckon it's an air lock. Also my rad cap was weeping coolant so I've put a spare one on just rule it out. Coolant level has remained constant but ideally I need to build up the pressure slightly and try the bleed screw as you say. I'm always paranoid about scalding myself so I will probably let the stealer do it next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payco Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Good luck buddy.Be persistent as air locks can be a bugger to clear. Edited January 30, 2016 by Payco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 If HDEV did the coolant change which is how I read your post them take it back to them to sort out😄 Sent from my Zed using Nangkang tyres front, RE040's rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
