  3. well, sorry guys but im no longer interested in wot happens in this place, its turning more into a chatroom everyday, people posting up about the most trivial things, this is a forum where people want info about there cars n problems they may be having, n want other ppls advice about things, but now this p-lace has turned into an everyday chit chat place, with less n less talk about the important stuff!! so now im saying my goodbye`s, i no longer have any interest in this place anymore. this place sucks!! fuzzy

  11. alrite andy, i aint doin it, its in the garage getting done. lol i was just wondering wot was under the manifold that could be leaking water, lol fuzzy
  12. right, the guy took the car to another garage, this guy said the car aint misfiring, as for the overheating problem, ma mate cant remember the name of it but says the water was pi$$in out the top of the engine, under the inlet manifold somewhere! wots under the manifold that the water would pi$$ out from? fuzzy
  13. yeah checked the oil filler cap, its fine, but a horrible smell comes from it, also a horrible smell comes out from the expansion bottle aswell when u take the cap off. fuzzy
  14. saying that, u know the small water pipe that goes from the top off the radiator to the expansion bottle, the water doesnt run consently thru that pipe, which i found strange, it kindy spits n spurts thru the pipe, if u know wot i mean. fuzzy
  15. thats wot i thot aswell, but surly that wont be the problem if the garage has done it correctly. think the guy at the garage said it might be some kind of problem with the cylinder head. fuzzy
  16. ok guys, more advice needed for a mates scoob, its a 93 wrx import, its overheating when sitting idling, temp goes back down a bit when driving it, hes just had the thermostat done thinking that was the problem but its still overheating, top radiator hose is hot but the bottom hose stays cold, when u take the expansion bottle cap off after driving it the water in the expansion bottle is bubbling. and alot of steam coming from the car. any ideas on the problem? also the engine is rocking quite a bit in the engine bay, the garage he took it to says its cos its firing on three cylinders, would this be right? i thot it might just be the engine mounts, but garage said it wasnt. fuzzy
  17. lol, tell me more? lol
