Well I still have water getting inside the car that is really doing my head in as well as dripping on it. I have taken the roof lining out, did that on Christmas eve cuz that's how I roll. So I have been driving around over a week with no roof lining and only the front seats in. The water seems to be coming in from the very front of the roof but get some from the back of the sun roof frame. I'm pretty sure its sun roof related but I haven't ruled out windscreen yet.
So I'm not that happy with the car at the moment so I haven't been showing it any love simply as it just doesn't deserve it. So how its looking at the moment
It hasn't been washed since the Christmas meet I think.
So now on to my other issue the coolant pressurising. It still seems to be doing it and today I check the coolant and the level had dropped so I'm thinking the head gasket is gone. I did change the thermostat but it doesn't have seem to of made any difference.
My plan is to take the car off the road fairly soon to try and sort out my problems which will include the engine coming back out. Got a few other bits and pieces to do as well so think its best to take it off the road before it lets me down and will have a good amount of time to get it ready for the summer. The plan is to put the S16 back on the road
