Hi Guys,
My 850 has had a couple of hoses replaced and it seems to be running hot. The AA came around today and said that it could be an airlock. They opened the bleed screw and some air came out.
The car seemed to be fine until I got home (drove around 4 miles). But after I turned the engine off the temp gauge was creeping up and got to over three quarters. I know it makes sense as the main fan is not running and there is no cold air cooling the engine down as when you drive but I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience.
The car has also had a couple of Pipercross induction kits fitted recently and was wondering if this could cause the car to run hotter than normal.
The car has a history off coolant problems ranging from hoses bursting, replacement thermostat (900 miles ago) and a heater matrix (12 months ago).
There could possible still be some air in there so iof anyone can advise me the best way to get rid of it that would be great.
Cheers,
Nick
