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.

coolant pressure test

I just did a coolant pressure test on 07 astra 1.4. I seem to keep refilling it twice a week. The pressure held in the test, with no sign of leaks. I get a sweet smell after driving Where is going??
