      Cus id jus spent 600 quid and had the van off road for two weeks lol. And the coolant started dropping the day after i got it back and i said id change the glowplugs myself lol . He also had to charge me per hour for his work as he did have a lot of jobs waiting but he did knock a bit off for me. So thought id look for someone who knows this engine specifically an can say what needs doing etc . Confusing i know but its just the way my head works lol

      Another point i dont get is, when i put my foot on the accelerator and rev to say 1500-4000 i can hear what sounds like running water? If thats the best way to describe it, what could this be?

      Thats what it sounds like but cant put my finger on where its from. Another thing ive noticed is, i had a really leaky coolant pipe so i changed it today and now my coolant pipes are near solid, surely that cant be normal. Logically id think there was a blockage like water can get out to the rad pipes but its as though a valve isnt fully opening to let it back in but i dont know the system well enough to say where.
