Cheers for all the help, got an m9 spline tool on order and should be here in the next couple of days

It did have a time were it overheated quite severely, would you say it needs it because of this? I will do pal, always a good help on here

I'm not in a massive hurry but would rather it was done right the first time, do you know how much it normally costs to get it at least skimmed? I've found a tutorial over on TGTT which is quite helpful so will be using that in conjunction with anything on here

Cheers pal I shall use that advice! Do you recommend getting the head skimmed and tested for defaults?

Anyone got a tutorial on how to do a headgasket on an FTE, my mechanic has no time for me in the next couple of weeks Is it a hard job? Any pointers and things to know before tackling one?

I have headgasket but if my mechanic isn't able to fit me in I'm going to struggle, I've never open up and engine before and what to make sure it's right first time

unfortunately doesnt come with boss pal, if youre still interested can make an offer on that

Anyone?

For some reason this car looks epic, possibly some inspiration for all n/a owners especially red ep91's

So ever since owning the car my interior light has never worked, the lights behind all the center column i.e the temp regulator and dials never worked and the interior clock is almost non existence until i put my lights on, but it doesn't work anyway, just resets the time to 01:00 everytime the car turns off. Now it's not any of the fuses, what else could it be, loom, loose connection? Any help would be appreciated

Thanks for the promt reply, I'll get one ordered. OE genuine from iddy the best option? im not planning on big power anytime soon

So since owning my GT I've had a real problem with overheating, I've replaced the radiator, thermostat and the waterpump to cure it. Although it has done about 95% there is still a problem were it overheats, for example earlier I was on my way to mfn, I was boosting quite hard on high boost and i saw the gauge creep up so decided to pull over and check. The reservoir was almost full, as in literally almost coming out the top and it was still hot. Now all prior to this it was fine. No issues until then. so what could it be? ive been told the higher pressures are lifting up the headgasket, and l

So haven't updated this properly in a while, other then a new radiator and new stat there are a few more things I've done. I will today be fitting a new water pump which I hope will fix the leak. Also removed exterior and interior air con components by the pump as the shorter belt is yet to arrive.

Hopefully if everything remains the same I can keep it, I was going to sell it but I came into a bit of money so as long as I can keep this money all should be going well! I'll drop you a pm in a bit
