the main issue now as i mentioned before is the temp reaching the red lines on occasions, it is happening less frequently now with no particular trend, i can drive it for hours with no problems and next day after driving for only 20 min or so it starts overheating with temp touching the red zone....very strange indeed, not sure what's causing it

i check the fuses under the steering wheel , they all look intact however i also managed to lock my radio , and now in search for the code, going back to my car papers there is a key replacement code of four numbers is that the same for the radio, and there is also additional audio manual with title ncdc 2013, i will try both and see what happens...

Omega General Help / Heating problem getting worse

« on: 04 August 2008, 12:16:34 »

back again , temp was sky high yesterday after half an hour drive, going into the red lines again and again, put the air con on and temp settled down, then i realised that i have been using the air con for the last few days when i thought the problem is sorted . i switched air con off and temp climbed up again , had a look at the earth lead on the battery, it felt very hot to touch, looked at the coolant and tried to open the coolant tank but i noticed there was a lot of pressure in there and water was ganna slash out everywhere if i continued, but surely i didnt....
now not sure where to start with this problem , shall i change the thermostat for a starter???

Omega General Help / a big thank you

« on: 03 August 2008, 15:33:55 »

guys i just want to thank you all for this great forum, i am very impressed with the quick responses, accurate problem solving, and the effort to explain in simple words for inexperienced guys like myself  
the water problem on the passenger side was actually caused by 2  blocked drains as you all suggested, and the illustration provided by x25xe was very helpful to locate the drains.
it is very amazing how your explanations guys reveals the garages stupidities , they were suggesting water coming from the radiator, heater matrix, air conditioning and they were trying to convince me changing these parts which was ganna cost me hundreds, but i am very fortunate to find this great forum..
The heating issue is not as bad as before i shall keep in eye for the next few days and see what happens, if the problem exacerbates i will come back for your invaluable advice again.

thanks for your clarification , i checked the fuses and they looked intact. what seems strange that i've driving the car for last few days with average temp of 90-95 no more spikes to over 100 !!!! cant explain this , whether its just the whether cooling down a bit i dunno..

i had a look at the fuses box, they look so different from the usual electrical fuse...am i looking in the right place( its the triangular box just next to the battery)!! however i opened the green ones which has got a circuit inside and they all looked very similar , couldn't tell whether they are faulty.
any comments?
