Title: Coolent loss
Post by: Raymienets on 07 January 2012, 16:29:09

Of lately have been getting coolent warning level warning on a regular basis. Have to top ubout a pint a week. Cannot see any visible leaks, Have not checked area around HBV. Am I right in thinking there have been posts regarding the Miggy being prone to HBV faults. Cheers in advance.

A helpful member has written an excellent guide on how to change the HBV.
