Might not be that though, could just be a slight air-lock in the rad or something, with the pressure & heat n all... of a bit of a leaky hose somewhere

would say give it a complete flush-out & refill, then see how it goes from there!

On your corsa's what temp is it when your fan kicks in ?? my car is getting very warm recently and fan is kickig it at just below 100 :boggle:

Also when i turned my car off tonight and checked under my bonnet i could hear a hissing noise coming from near the tuning plate or something (corsa 2.10 16v by the way) now i don't know if it has alway's been like this or not !

I did ask Lee M and he reckons its ok and Fad's does the same !

Anyone ?
