Hi, what does the original expansion t am look like ? Any ideas ? Thanks for the speedy replyWell, thats not good. Coolant must be going somewhere ! There is evidence of coolant overflow, new expansion tank. A head gasket leak is not out of the question
I filled it up last night, and my wife drove it 3 miles to work and back, and when I got home, it was still on the max line.. Will keep an eye on it. I thought that might be why there is no heat ?? But the wife says it didn’t get look warm ? Thanks for the help, I am a total novice on cars!!Exactly the same. I am assuming that it has been replaced as most of them become yellow due to the heat after a couple of years. This still looks brand new.
Did you try adding coolant up to the max line and running the car up to operating temperature and then check what happens ?
Hi , thanks for the reply. I have a cable I think. Does the app run on a PC ? As I don’t have an android deviceA diesel wont get to full operating temp in 3 miles. You have to drive it longer and even push it a bit harder. Do you have an obd bluetooth device ? You can use an app like torque to monitor temperature, ecu faults, etc
Typical I can’t find my cable.. What app do I need For Apple? Thanks Assume I can get an adapter on eBay ?Usually the obd adapter is either bluetooth for android devices or wifi for apple devices. What cable do you have ? If its is for vcds and you have the software its the best choice !
Yes. Dont get an expensive one, there is no point. Some apple apps with work with a wifi adapter only, others with both bluetooth and wifi . I dont have a specific app to reccomend, I use torque and carista on android. Torque is not available on apple store and carista requires an annual membership (but free to scan for faults i think).Typical I can’t find my cable.. What app do I need For Apple? Thanks Assume I can get an adapter on eBay ?
