Rocker cover off any further signs?Not good!!!
Cream under oil cap running, very hot when stationary and drinking oil
Head gasket failure perhaps
Rocker cover off any further signs?
Dipstick check?
Rad fan failiure?
Many possibilities before head gasket
Though if further checks point to head gasket then catch it sooner rather than later
Ill check rocker cover tomo.Rocker cover off any further signs?

Whats the dipstick check? Never heard of that one...
Rad fan seems to be on all the time lately.
Ill check thermostat tomo as well just incase.
Stays normal on the A roads doing 50/60mph...What has the temp needle been saying?
Losing any coolant?
"Drinking oil", slight blue smoke out the back?
Shouldn't budge past half way. And it should never be in the red.Stays normal on the A roads doing 50/60mph...
When stood still it climbs well into the red
No not losing coolant at all it just looks creamy on inside of expansion tank cap.
Thats the wierd bit no blue smoke at all...
will also check tomo...Shouldn't budge past half way. And it should never be in the red.
Check the thermostat isn't seized.
Yup... and yup...Water isnt getting to your oil... oil is getting to your water... wipe it clean and try again tomorrow?
Its a cooling issue by the sounds of it mate. Not head gasket
Checked the thermostat its fine working well and opened straight away.
Oddly temp stayed in the middle of gauge today and fan kicked in at the right time...
Did the dipstick test no cream on it or under cap just under coolant cap...
So thought meh and will keep an eye on it for now.
Modified my fuel filler cap

After seeing every man and his dog owning them mate ive slightly gone off them sorry.What spec were you looking at getting the Grid V's in? I might possibly be selling mine as i'd need wider/lower offset ones for my next car

I mean in general mate loads of jap cars had them at JAE.Ah okay, no problem. A lot of people do seem to use Rotas but iirc the only micras on Grid V's are mine and mikeyrocks'
Thanks mate big changes since you last commented on the blog thought you had dissapeared...Just had a read through of this and it look like you've put in some work mate, well done, was looking good at JAE, hope you get HG sorted soon.
That was my plan mate but on a lower scale using a hose with my finger over the end and possibly soak myself lolFingers crossed Tom, could stick a pressure washer in the water ways to clear out any crap
Good call ill do thatHave you got one of those attachments that change from mist to jet? Might make things easier
What do you think of reversing the flow of coolant while the engine is not running to loosen debris?It should save you from getting completely soaked
