Dnk Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Just buy an o/e one, why risk something off ebay and with a higher pressure than stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Local motor factors, Halfords etc or get your nearest Toyota dealer to pop one in the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashbuster Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) thanks guys can any of you guys here listen to this file please, i have a weird noise and i think its air in my coolant system from a dodgy rad cap if you listen to your speakers close up you will hear it, sound reminds me of the old dial up internet View My Video put the speakers on full and ear by the speaker the phone is on the driver side dash Edited April 6, 2013 by ashbuster (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nicholas Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Rubbers probably perished, does the engine temp get hot when driving? and after a long drive can you hear a hissing from the rad cap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 the temp stays fine no problems with that but im going off the stock temp gauge in the car. after my last long drive i heard a little bubbling in the coolant system. when i squeeze my fat top rat hose i can hear air coming form the cap, from that video does it sound like its air in the coolant system?

Guest Nicholas Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 To be honest it's very hard to hear from the video, is there any local member that you can nip to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
