this is super helpfull and worth sharing spreading.
came across as i searched for something related, which i will be posting as a new thread.
but, once thanks for the info!

a late but very sincere thank you for your help. it must have been an airlock. i scrupulously followed the instructions found somewhere on the forum, worked like a charm. back to my engine number, aidan, i can't seem to find any number anywhere around the breather tower (at least without dismantling...

so, i looked further on the forum and found a post that treated question 1 previously. wonderful!
(crawling the forum on a phone, slightly cumbersome ).
will check that radiator-fitted temperature sensor by bridging.

thanks aidan, ( really funny, i'm sure i'm not the first to mention this but "aidan" in french, granted written as "aidant", unsurprisingly means helpful ) very helpful indeed! couple of comments in the same order as your reply: 1 > the bentley manual was indeed a source of confu...

thanks mocki & rascal for such a speedy answer (not sure yet how to tag answers in posts), i'll check / bleed the system as soon as the weather permits  ❄️. any idea how that might have built up along the 10.000km since last service (and replacement of front/rear waterlines > circuit flushed &am...

hello syncrommunity, notes: • this is my first post, so happy to hear feedback about guidelines observation • i have searched the archives to find a similar problem but seem to have been unsuccesful • there will be other separate posts with other separate issues (syncros...) i am the very happy owne...
