hey mate, i had some cooling issues, i went to a radiator specialist in gladesville, on victoria rd, i dont remember the name of the place, but he fix my problems that i had at the time which was a few years ago, since then ive never opened my radiator cap, he flushed the old stuff out, changed the a few things and he did it in a day, and it cost me $80, i went to another place before and they wanted $300 to fix my probs, powerplay imports sent me to see this guy, also check if your radiator has coolant in it, maybe they filled it with just water, and after a while water just evapourates, hope i was some help, overheating is a bitch of a thing, as for someone giving your front end a make over, my brother totalled my front end into the back of another car a few years back, ive learned to live with it, you forget after a while
