hi all
Still overheating on my 998 A+. Having done all the usuals, i think the waterjacket / water ways may be sludged up.
Is there any way of getting the crud out as there is no water drain hole on the A+?
cheers and happy christmas
thanks to all the crew who have helped me this year.
Bloody Mini's!!
cheers

sounds to me like you need to flush it through. i did this once on another car. remove your radiator, thermostat and housing and put a hose pipe on the bottom hose. let it flush through for a while, and hopefully it'll come out of the thermostat housing.
