I have a '95 sb Barina (oz) when mine was making lots of noise @ startup time it turned out to be the coolant temperature sensor !!! cost me $12.95 for the new sensor, took me 'bout half hour to replace as it was between the motor & the firewall. At first I thought the timing belt was about to fall off it made such a noise!!! | |

try the same thing i said to Cybermonkey in his thread, failing that, drain the system, flush with clean water through a hose, then fill the system again with coolant, then try again. keep an eye out for mayo under the oil filler cap, and for white smoke out the exhaust. make ure your interior blowers temperature is turned on full when you do this though. | |

Air in the system at a guess? Maybe some air trapped somewhere, therefore this area isn't filled with water and doesn't flow correctly.?? | |
