Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I've searched this forum and tried googling it too but I'm getting a totally mixed bag of answers!

    The coolant in my '02 VW Polo is low. The car manual says to only used VW coolant; is this true or do they just want more of my money? Will those tubs in the Esso garages not work?....

    If you go to halfords or any motor factors, you can buy coolant that goes with any colour thats already in it

    Yeah, just go into consort or halfords and you'll see universal coolant and you can stick that into it. Just read the bottle and it'll tell ya
