Posted re heater problem last month. Have now bled the system and still have problem of all cold air. Seen the post re haeter prblems from Steve and notice a response from PaulSmith regarding a similar prob. He said he replaced a sensor under bonnet and it cost £15 IIRC. Am I just thick as I don't know what IIRC is? Where can I get if necessary.
Of course since bleeding the system and going for a run down the M69 it now has a leak from somewhere. Topped up reservoir and only took about 300mls and now a bit more water has come out. Suggestions??

A common invisible minor leak on a Turbo is a small pipe that runs across the back between the engine and the bulkhead. It can fail through corrosion underneath it and drip slowly onto the hot exhaust crossover pipe below where the drip flashes off before you get a chance to see it.

If it is that then it's reasonably cheap as I recall, and you're familiar with ballache already so you're set :wink:
