  1. I left the radiator cap open which is what I usually did to bleed it, but if it didn't bleed properly do you think it could be the cause ? Because the noise definitely seemed to come from the engine, cambelt side, unless the noise is at the water pump?

  2. Hello, My headgasket on my 98 glanza went about a month ago and I've just finished putting it all back together this weekend with genuine parts from Toyota, filled it up with fresh oil and fired her up, all sounded good.

    Revved it after it warmed up a little and left my foot on the pedal on about 3k revs then once I let go there was a weird gurgling or bubbling noise in the engine, sounded from the rocker cover or near the cam gears, I switched it off straight away and left it a minute then fired her up again and the noise was gone, I did the same, reved her up a little and the noise came back, just a loudish gurgle noise. Switched it off and back on and the noise hasn't come back but I'm worrying over it now. The oil levels are fine.

    Does anyone have any idea what it could be ?

  3. I'm just hoping someone can point me in the right direction with my glanza V

    A week ago my alternator belt snapped about 1.5 miles from my house, I drove it back slowly and temperature gauge rose to 3/4 up, I stopped and switched the engine for a few minutes, started it again and temperature dropped back to normal, so I drove it the remaining 200 meters home.

    I changed the belts and the oil the day after and since then the temperature is going up to 3/4 and the fan is not kicking in, I changed the thermostat and it wouldn't open, bottom of radiator was cold and top was hot, removed thermostat to try and it's still getting hot but fan still not kicking in, does anyone have any ideas what it could be ? I connected live straight to the fan and it works, brings the temperature straight down. But won't come on by itself.

    Thanks in advance

  4. I'm just after a bit of advice, I was driving on the flyover doing about 60 in 4th gear overtaking and the boost gauge showed around 0.9 bar and it hit fuel cut and one hell of a judder.

    The only mods On my glanza is a Arc top mount intercooler, decat, 3" exhaust. Standard actuator.

    Any ideas what it could be?

    Thanks in advance
