So I topped up the coolant in the reserve tank - but this seems to have had no affect on the level of the coolant under the metal cap? Your help appriciated. W

Gggggreat thanks. I'll be trying that tomorrow. Last question then.....
As the coolant is a bit "milky" could anyone give me a good step by step to do a complete coolant change and flush?
Many thanks

hj has a break down on here somewhere, if you search for coolant or other words associated you should find it, milky coolant doesnt sound good btw hopefully itll be fine :-\

That's because I topped it up with semi skimmed. Should I have used full fat? I've had a search for changing the coolant but all I've found are topping it up posts. Any pointers as to where the step by step guide is hiding?
