ok heres the story
2 weeks ago i noticed my rad leaking around the sensor at the bottom of it.........
so i replaced the rad first. put it all back together and noticed the temp gauge going through the roof.........and the fan not cutting in
seen as the fan wasnt cutting in i bridged the sensor at the bottom of the rad and the fan came on  which i thought i was on a winner so i changed the sensor.
but nothing changed still the cars temp gauge is going up  ..... ok i thought id bite the bullet to be on the safe side id get a cmpresion test done and this turned out fine all round, so the head gasket it fine too :S and the cars not over heating at all
in all honestly im at a bit of a loss as i need my car, i dont wanna drive it untill the problem is fixed
HELP lol
thanks
This in turn solved the leaking coming from the rad but now i have another problem
