I believe its hot in the top,as the water cools it becomes more dense, sinking to the bottom of the rad.

If so, you may have seen (and heard!) my Soarer as it drove passed the television crew who were filming down Dunblane High Street this morning (presumably for Andy Murray's match today)

They were interviewing a tall blond woman as I roared past. Don't know if she was famous - she had her back to me.

Anyway, just doing my wee bit to let the world know about these great cars..!

Hi Guys

I just spent 2 hours changing my Diff. I knew it was on its way out anyway, but i also thought it was the cause of the weird Grind/knock rubbing noise i was getting from the near side rear.

I now think its a faulty UV Joint.

Does anyone know where i can get one from to replace and how easy it is???
i could ideally need it this weekend

Thanks everyone for all your help

AAAHHHHH!!!

Ok, i just replaced my Diff. Took 2 hours and all is well. It works great.
BUT! i am still getting the same clunk/rub noise.

Its louder now, i guess due to the fact i have a diff that works.

This points me towards the UV Joint. Near side rear.

Where can i get a replacement in a day? i need one urgent!

Thanks for your help guys
