I would say given his description of the waterpump, that is the source of overheating. But I am no Mechanic by a longshot..Taz wrote:Ive popped through an online quote to carways - thanks for the heads up dwayne.
Hopefully get some good news on tuesday.
All other companies ive gotten a quote through have been 920+
Ive Pm'ed ritici, now enquiring how driveable it really is, and if i can bring a radiator or something down to temporarily hold the overheating at bay till it gets home. A long shot but might pay off. Just need it to hold till brisssie - binning the motor after that and dropping the GPR one in.
Although after 250 in fuel, 80 on permit, flights and food it will still be a good 500.
Worst case ill prepare for a 920 bill.
Still a good bargain after a heavy freight bill anyway

If it is overheating due to loss of coolant, put a large water tank with a pump on the passenger seat, hose out the window into the overflow bottle and keep pumping water in

Opt for door to door .. Less hassle when you are not sure what condition the car is in.
