i think this might be a bit more than a old header tank!!!! just driven up the road to get some petrol, all fine but when i pulled up outside my house i sat and idled for a few mins and i noticed the temp gauge was getting really really hot (about 1 mm away from the red), then just as i was about to turn the ignition off sh!t loads of steam came out from under the bonnet!! after the steam passed i popped the bonnet to find a split in the thin water hose that goes onto the turbo.

now im thinking, definately fueling prob as the car also doesnt idle after its been running for a min or two and also it could be getting hotter as i have still got an xr3i bonnet on there (getting a new vented s2 one soon).

Was booked in to get it setup on the rollers tomorrow aswell, just my luck!! now i need to get another pipe quick and think of an excuse to have the day off work.

any more ideas on the car prob???
