But it will mean it wears out faster:)

Do the system hold good pressure in the hoses? The pressure caps on the V6 don't last forever, around 5 years then they don't hold pressure and can start overheating. So check if the hoses stay firm for at least 10 minutes once the engine is switched off after a decent drive. They are also hot...

What kind of steel bearing?

Yes I think that's part of the problem. Young people have been bombarded with that green govco end of the world BS since they were babies and it has made them feel guilty about breeding. Add the fact most of us live in an expensive rat race these days and kids cost money.

Govco is desperately trying to avoid the country officially falling into a recession. Even though we are already in a recession per capita, the one thing preventing an actual recession is the huge level of migration. All those hungry mouths they have imported mean more money gets spent at Coles...

Can you take a clear photo if there's room? If the housing Congress of without to much fuss then might charge you 1 hour labour? Have never had a close look at the housing.

Does it hold pressure? Genuine Holden and Mackay are the only caps I've ever seen work on an Alloytec.

One of the little hoses runs from the filler neck to the top of the radiator. That is the one. When the filler neck is full you pull the hose off the fitting on top of the radiator and that allows air to bleed out of the radiator. You will see or hear air coming out and then a steam of coolant...

Which radiators have y wasou been buying? Could it just be a case of sh1t eBay radiators?

Bleeding through the heater hoses would probably work but sounds like a pain in the ass. I have only ever bleed it through the radiator cap and the little bleed hose. But the first time you drive it after filling it must be a VERY short drive. maybe after cracking 3 radiators the heater hose...

What is paying on the TV, A blue ray movie or TV shows? Is the aerial connected from wall socket to blue ray to TV or wall to TV and a seperate cable from blue ray to TV?

No making much sense so far. 15W40 is thicker than what you are using now, and 5W30 is even thinner again. Why have you switched to a thinner oil? Most people recommend using thicker oil as the car gets older, not thinner oil like you suggest. Maybe you went too thin and made it more noisy...

That's a worry if somebody is selling struts that are not assembled correctly. Did you take any photos of the struts before you installed them? Were the rubber strut tops definitely new? By the way they sit with the rod sticking up so high makes me think the strut tops could be old and...

Did you sort out the problem? The new nuts could be the wrong type. I have always had to re use the old thin nuts to avoid this issue.
