+1

also if both your hoses are hot (the one going to the engine and the one coming from the engine) are both hot when touched then thermostat is fine. as it is opening at the correct tempreture. coolant related issues are a head ****

Alright thanks for the advice/tips, will give it a check out today and post progress/updates. Hopefully all goes well and its just the radiator..

Cheers.

might be your water pump that needs replacing.

So what's the verdict? Any updates?

i wonder if ppl actually do monthly checks. this wouldnt happen if one was to do monthly check of fluids etc.

Cracked/leaking Radiator at the bottom, switched radiators and flushed and filled with coolant. Everything is back to normal now.

Thanks for all the help/advice.. Cheers =)
