Ok background story.
couple of weeks ago I went on the QLD cruise. once we got to our destination I noticed my car leaking coolant. popped the bonnet n sure enough it was leaking from one of the hoses of the IACV valve n the radiator hose had expanded. let it cool down topped it up again n off i went. got gome tightened the clamp from the hose of the IACV and it was all sweet. been driving for two weeks without any hastles.. :)
Finished work today drove to uni n as i am looking for a carpark noticed the temp starting to rise. found a carpark and sure enought the radiator hose has expanded again. ( no leaks this time).
My question is if i do a ratiator flush will it fix it as it or do i need to do something more as there is pressure in there somewhere causing the hose to expand.. ?
Thanks in advance ppl...
