Thank you. I drove 125m last week and it seemed to be fine. So I will keep this in mind for when I get the radiator system flushed.

Thank you. I do have a jack. it's the original that came with the car when it was bought new. I'd really struggle with something like this as a first DIY job. But thank you for the info for future reference.

Thanks again. Will do I am not even a novice, this is my first car. so all is appreciated.

new radio fitted, loose negative cable problem resolved. All working well. Thanks again to all for advice and help.

Had a look, took negative off battery, which is already very loose and won't tighten. took centre console out. Took "old" radio out... fitted wire harness that came with Kenwood, thats as far as I can get I can't do it,. I will find a radio fitter near me. Thanks for all your help.

thank you. I currently have an aftermarket in, this is what has blown, so I am hoping this will already be present and just a straight swap, but I am worried I will blow something. Is it ESSENTIAL to remove the (-) from the battery before doing this?

Thank you It's a used radio so packaging already open. Thank you for another helpful reply.

hi, it's a Kenwood, it's boxed with manual so hopefully code will be in there. I haven't tried yet as had a Dr appointment. Thanks again

Hi, first, thank you for taking the time to reply and being so helpful including the link and photos. I know absolutely nothing at all about car maintenance, and wouldn't know how to use a multimeter to check the power. Although I have used them in other situations I wouldn't know where to...

Found the fuse. labelled "Audio" it's 15A It looks in tact, not blown, a "new" radio is on the way, so I guess, the only thing is to change this for the "new" one and see. Thank you for your help.

Great, thank you. I think I have some fuses in a bulb kit I bought. I will get back to you tomorrow. Thank you again

Thank you. I will take a look tomorrow.

2 days ago my radio lost all power, even in stand by mode, there's nothing on the display. It's about 8 months old. Could it be the fuse and if so how do I locate it? Many thanks

Have noticed what looks like sludge at the top of my expansion tank. Would this cause any issues or indicate any? I've drove without any issues 125m round trip and as always drove like a dream. Obviously checked coolant, oil, air etc on set off and return. This is how I noticed it. Thanks in...

Must have been. I wire brushed it and it looks 100 times better. Not perfect but pics put on here to show.

Not used the gunk yet. Just elbow grease wire wool and brushes and a little methylated spirit. More work needed but big improvement so far. Thanks for the help and advice so far guys and girls. Sent from my SM-G960F using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Thanks!! (y) Was thinking that, when I was in local auto shop was told wire brushing MAY loosen the gasket??? I thought it sounded unlikely but as a novice wanted to check here first. I now have methylated spirit as couldn't find ISO, and I got GUNK (the metal tin brush on kind. I also have...

Appreciate the advice. I will try iso and see how it works. I haven't got any right now but will pick some up give it a go and let you know. Thanks again.

OK thanks, I don't have the confidence to remove and paint it, so I guess I will have to live with it. Appreciate the reply. (y)

Just added photos.
