Re: Turbo Diesel 1.6 Overheating
Well I think it is all sorted now. It turns out to be an air lock causing the grief. I pre-filled up the hoses connecting to the electric water pump.

Roof box to fit Leisure Drive conversion
Hi
Looking for a roof box the right size to fit on the back of the high top roof of my Leisure Drive converted Transporter. The Fammia boxes are too big, even the size 1. The box must be water tight. Any ideas of where to source suitable box?
Cheers
Craig
