That's a real sickener pal, I did mine soon after buying it when I read of it on here and glad I did as it was in a really poor state. Not any help to you though but you do have my sympathy

thank your for your sympathy. what was annoying that I had passed my MOT with ZERO advisory 2 months before it happened and replaced one rusty clip the same time.... but only one.

Cheers for the heads up , had a gander at mine and looks like the previous owner has dealt with it, but something to keep an eye on it

Yep. Thanks a lot.
Yeah I confirm. Mine had an issue, it throws coolant out.
It was obviously air in the coolant system. I confirm it was that rusty clip that was leaking ever so slowly and it was not showing in the expansion tank. |

Any idea if this will effect a V40 dual fuel 2001? Collecting today so will have a look. Let’s hope it doesn’t go on the way home!
