Sorry if hav confused you about the over heating the temp gage goes the middle of the gage witch is 90 it goes upto 120 i didn't think that was it overheating wen i opened the bonnet i seen that the reservoir was empty so i losen the cap just a little an then the pressure built up in it an started filing up an starts spraying out the over flow i dont no much about cars i would like a decent thermostat so this problem doesn't ruin my car thank you so much for all ur help it is much appreciated

It doesnt overheat yea i hav the receipt for the work done an the i took it to a mechanic today he thi ks its a faulty thermostat he had it on the ramp for an hr he said no leaks then took it for a run noticed it started blowing cold air then checked the thermostat an said it was cold one side so he thinks its that £70 for new one an fitted

Not the temp seems fine just stays at 90 no overheating not noticed any smoke i undone the oil cap oil looks black but no milky signs no back fireing powers seems good it a 1.9ltr think it seem to lose more coolant wen i put my foot down iys done 11100 miles he had it serviced at halfords 2 wks b4 i baught it he had new thermostat fittled an has a new oil cooler in the book that he didn't hav time to fit

No it doesnt over heat it was a private sale

There is no leaks visible it only started coming out the reservoir wen i started to open the cap wen the engine was hot because i noticed it was empty i really hope it not the head thats gone an its just a water pump he said he had a new thermostat fitted but shurly that cant be the issue
