T-CUT FAIL :lol

some chavette will see the pink from your bus on the bonnet and want to do that mod to her shitroen paxo. good work though writing it off. i bet he crapped his burberry boxers when he heard the crunch.

Do any belts need to come off or can I just unbolt it and back on again. And ps, many thanks to you all for your help.

Many thanks. I'll book it in at a garage as I have no experience doing water pumps on these. Cheers, si

Before I go ahead with this, from what I've described, does it sound like the water pump?

No zip. Could you add me to it please?

Help? Anyone in Kent fancy giving me a hand?

That's fantastic cheers. Now to find a cheapish pump

Is it a hard job? And thanks for the reply.

Hi guys, I noticed a puddle of water under my mav tonight and it is luminous green. I turned the engine on and watched to see where it was coming from. It's running down near the belts, am I right in assuming that it needs a new water pump? Cheers, si

just to update. i have found a 2.4l mav about 10 mins from me and its in better shape than the one i missed out on cosmetically. the guy wants £400 for a quick sale as its clogging up his drive and was used by hi au-pair but she has now gone back home so this ain being used. he says it needs the...

went from bad to worse im afraid guys. what with one thng and another, i missed out on the mav!!! however, i still have one in the pipeline and should be sorting it in a week or 2. apologies to zip for not getting back to you fella.

no interest in this then???????

lol, i dont think thats such a good idea. i could always install an aircon switch with an led behind it, so when its lit up it makes me feel cold!!! my nan used to say that about the fire, she used to put the coal effect thingy on and she always used to say "makes me feel really warm having...

i dont think my mav comes with aircon :-(
