Re: Which coolant & how much do I need
I've never had any issues using tap water with concentrate, but using a bit of deteregent sounds like a good idea. These days I use the ready mixed stuff as its easier. When you buy the concentrate from Halfords get one of those hydrometers as well just to check the ratio of water/concentrate is ok....

Re: [Mk2] [NA] HELP! Car wont start..
You should be reading about 13v+ when the engine is running and the alternator is charging the battery, if it isn't there could be a problem with it (check wiring, belts etc before shelling out on a new alternator.)

Re: AW11 crash test pic
Possibly not as Euro NCAP wasn't about in the mid 80's, they might have crash tested elsewhere though. Would be interesting to see if the lack of the lump up front makes for a better 'crumple zone'!!

Re: [Mk1] [Generic] Please help a US Yank- Drive an Auris w2.2D diesel, or have you?
I hear that Rolls-Royce Trent make great engine conversions for a MK1 [tongue] Been trying to get a Trent 900 from work, no joy yet though!!:mrgreen: The main problem would be drivehsafts, gearbox linkage (front to rear) and piping for the radiator. With the other mk1.5/V6 modders out there they ha...

Re: how many different engines?
so does a twin charger not count? The twincharger is still based on the 4A-G(Z)E block as far as I know, although they have mentioned the other 4A-GE variants From looking elswhere on the forum, I would imagine the twincharger option is probably more expensive motor by far!! Even beating the trijet...
