Can anyone confirm which sensor the Water Temp gauge uses ? There are x2 to my knowledge , one in the thermostat and one in the Rad ? Im guessing its the thermostat as you would be more interested in that one? Had a low reading gauge during the recent cold snap which went back to normal after...

Hello, Larini boxes are on (sound epic). Need to finish the install and run the vacuum pipe down the car now to keep the neighbour on board. What's the OE pipe run on a Sport GTS ? I struggled to find a diagram on eurospares , maybe I was looking in the wrong area (eg "Silencers") Assuming it...

What purpose does this sealant actually serve , Is it just weather proofing from the inner arch towards the rear? Not sure if the chap at the factory got a bit excited but there was loads of it. Doubt I'll be able to apply with a decorator gun when refitting the new wing, what happens in the...
