yea sorry was a bit vague...what i understand is that the head gasket has been replaced with a fibre one, cam(timing)belt has also been replaced-i'd like to hear opinions as to what i should test/check/strip/replace in order to solve this continuing over heating issue...

read a couple of threads on here last night regarding aaz stuff but i'm always lookin for more info-thanks again amigos...

When does it overheat.

When you are going up hill.

Does it sit at normal temperature until you give it some pedal, or when your sitting in a traffic jam.

Is it ok when ticking over, or does it keep rising. Do the rad fans come on.

Are you loosing any water, is the water bubbling in the tank, any traces of oil.

Need a good description of how it over heats, to be able to narrow the options for your problem.

Theres quiet a few things that can cause overheating unfortunately.

If it does not have the metal gasket it will have head gasket problems. Has the thermostat been replaced, only geniune ones work.
