Ive not long done full flush on the ATR and the Leon FR due to leaks etc so think I might have landed lucky with that one.

I'm with Paul - as far as the worrying is concerned. A couple of the cars we have on the to-do list have been sitting in the cold for too long and still have coolant in the blocks.

I wonder which bit breaks first?
