Ive just taken my series 2 turbo to my mates garage in chertsey as its been over heating and just as i got there theres this huge ssssssssss noise i couldnt find where it was coming from, it sounded like the block the hose underneath the top boost hose has split plus my water bottle is about to burst so my question is what other damage have i done ? and if anyone in surrey has the hoses i need and a water bottle i can collect either tonight or tomorrow morning then please please let me know.

Thanks
a very unhappy sam

 

it sounds like its just overheating as it can not create pressure .. as water boils higher under pressure ..

just get some new hose and bottle .. should all be ok ...

 

Tomo parts in Cowley (near uxbridge) stock the hose, if you call them before 10am they could order you the expansion bottle for tomorrow afternoon.
there only about 20 mins from Chertsey, or try ARE of Chertsey, they would get the bits through Tomo & have it delivered to the Chertsey branch.

 

Thanks guys the local scrap yard came to my rescue for the water bottle but no doubt im gunna get raped over the price of the hoses

Thanks again i feel a little bit better now
