So today was the first day my cars temperature went passed half way and almost at the H marker.

Should i be worried?

Yes you should be worried. Stock gauge only hits H when something is very wrong. Check your cooling system.

there has been a bit of this going on for a while already. parts suppliers get ready to close doors, car manufacturers cant complete cars without specific part(s), so they throw enough money at it (making a loss) to keep the production line running until they find a new source for the same/similar parts.

Some of the decline of the Aus car market i think is still due to the slow and pain death of the manufacturing industry, not entirely on price and market domination

Dat awkward feel when your job is in manufacturing industry :/

Careful Steve, Tony's car is now a write off... Learn from his mistakes before it's too late. Check your coolant and make sure that you've got pressure... Could still be something simple like your radiator cap not holding enough pressure.

Lol don't scare him

My car was a write off for different reasons :P

have you checked your coolant?

Im going to guess that you need to top up the coolant in your radiator

It never hit the H, it went to the notch before when i was stopped. Mate told me to check my water pump =\

remove drain plug and turn car on.... if water is pumped out (as opposed to drained by gravity) your water pump should be fine

you'd be surprised how much of an effect a busted rad cap can have.

Car had a minor done last week. It was when the car stopped on the freeway ( trafic ) the heat would rise, but once i started rolling (60 km/h+) the needle would drop. the part that concerned me the most was when i got it home and shut it down the water bubbling sounds it was making.

You're kidding right...just sending the suit back over takes a month or two.

Last time it was about $550 for a full suit + two tailored shirts.

Thats pretty pricy

I'm paying around 400 for mine with 5 shirts, Tailor in HK

last one was from thailand, quality was shit.

but yeah I went from hating suits to loving them jsut from one tailored job.

when something fits perfect you love wearing it,

oh yeah and cufflinks do rock.

mmm carbon cufflinks

    • For what it's worth (I'd never looked at the button closely enough to work out it has a person on it!) with the switch 'active' double-pressing the unlock on the remote will cause lights to turn on. As I recall it will cycle through plain-unlock, unlock-with-park-lights and unlock-with-headlights as you repeatedly double-press unlock.
