ha, only just seen that reply! Alright Alright, you were right.... now solve this. . .

OK, last night i drove home from my mates house, got on the drive, got out the car and i could hear hissing. I could hear it coming from under the bonnet, and thought it could be the water thingy again, but it was about 2am and i couldn't be bothered to look, plus it was dark. Anywho, i've just checked and the water is EMPTY. I only filled it up the other day, and the time before that, i filled it up at the mini meet, on Thursday, it was really low then too.

When i filled it up today, it made a really funny humminh sound. . made me laugh! But it took a LOT of water again!!

If the Thermostat has been 'fixed' then it can't be that can it?

Any ideas

The warranty has run out now, ironically it ran out yesterday. GRR

Right peeeeeps PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Its the hose that has gone, but i don't know which one i need to buy, so in a min i'm going to post up some photographs of Monty under the bonnet and an arrow to the bit that has broken and can ya help me get the right product on mini spares please. I have just been to PMA and some other local car parts place and they don't have them, which is annoying as i was hoping to get it today and it would be fixed fairly soonish, rather than wait for delivery. . . . .

But anyway

PLEASE HELP RAZ AND MONTY

Edit:



So ive put a label where the split pipe is in the following photograph. Could you please tell me what product it is on mini spares. My car is 1994 mini cooper 1.3i

Who is going to be kind enough to help a blonde girl and her pride and joy. . . .

I thought hose one, but wasn't sure.

Do i need the rubber one or silicon one? They are similar price, the silicon one is nicer colour but it wouldnt match the rest of it ahaha

[rosewhite]

silicone are better but both would work, so get the one you like best

Thanks hun

Silicon would probably last longer, and I believe they help with heat dissipation a little (not sure on that though). Rubber hose will be fine though for your needs.

I'm not sure exactly which hose you need, I'll move this topic to Injection Specific as the people in there should know!

Cool thanks babes, hopefully they know!!
