It kind of feels like putting on dirty socks when you've just had a bath! lol

Gary, 2 questions mate as you've chaned the WTS.

1- Did you have to drain the coolant first, or is it high enough on the block to not need to get the water out?

2 - Does the WTS have a gasket? I ordered one from that web site yesterday and the fella said he thought it didnt need a gasket, only a washer but he wasnt sure!

Buy the way, this http://www.ignitioncarparts.co.uk/PartDetails.aspx?s_pc=ICP-WTS3226&s_vid=
is th eright one for the gti. Even has the genuine suzuki part number for refrence!
Good site Very Happy

Thanks mate
Can

i drained it just to be sure and just reused the fluids, anti freeze aint cheap, you will have to bleed the system after you`v fitted it anyway so why not

the gasket is the washer if you catch my drift
dont do it up to tight, just a pinch will do, i think there is a torque setting in the manual
