well its all fixed sort of, the car still stinks even though i washed it as well, the bloody thing is inches from the ground no wonder it broke so easily
i just removed it and fitted some custom pipe work
lets see how long this lasts...

in a hole... a dark murky hole... away from all daylight... well ok not quite, but it feels like it...
At the moment the car is loosing a lot of coolant and because of the weather I'm not able to get out there and check it out, and as don't have any access to ramps etc.. I'm not sure what I should do with the car, I'm hoping that its something simple like a split hose of knackered radiator, if not and it turns out to be the headgasket then lets just say that me thinks the car will be going or being broken down for spares because I really cannot be bothered to work on it anymore ! ! !

LOL... cheers for the offer James, its a little far to come though to give me a hand though... lol
I did the head-gasket and the turbo, and the manifold gasket and then.... the list goes on and on...... and most of the times its rained and poured like crazy... even in the snow before lol
I'm getting it on some ramps at lunchtime tomorrow to see if its a leak and if not I'm going to take out all the plugs and check for water in the cylinders......
For the amount that it costs at the stealers to have the headgasket done I could get another full engine from like 2 different suppliers lol
