Yes - System stays pressurised when running - Leaks if the engine is cold and you try and top it up.. Run with the expansion tank open and let it draw in, the leak stops and will stay stopped until engine is off and cools. Thats the main reason I thought thermostat, as once its up to temp, it...

Should also mention, the water appears pretty central in the car - Dripping down by the oil sump.. But doesn't seem to be far enough over for the water pump

1.8t Petrol Model. Sorry - thought i'd thrown that info in! Got the thermostat off so i'm committed to that!Just not sure I can bring myself to the pump and belt. Thanks for the link to the article - That side is fine - Did the temperature sender as the dial was erratic (didn't know whether it...

Thanks both! Looking at the back its the end cap (I assume, as there is no other fixings around that area and its around 26mm!! Part ordered... Fingers crossed!
