Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 2Original post

Manual or Tip? If it's Tip, I seem to recall a post by porscheuro about this some while ago. Something to do with a vacuum pipe getting kinked, and causing the heat exchanger valve for the Tip radiator being permanently open, resulting in over-cooling. Yes - I know it sounds vague........ If it's manual - forget I said anything!

POST 3Original post

is this not a tip box..... and is it the one that was leaking oil... what was the reason for new box then...

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

cheers for that rich gonna take it back tuesday.

POST 5Original post

what they do is forget to connect the vac pipe on the side of the box..

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

penny just dropped.porsche euro its paul came to see you 2 weeks ago with leak you sorted bonnet out .do you think its that vac pipe then

POST 9Original post

possible cause yes , also have they bled the coolant system correctly.. so they decided it needed a new box then :thumb:

POST 10Original post

I hope it was a warranty job..... The Merc boxes do suffer from leaks - mine did - but it is madness to fit a new box, as the leaks can be fixed by a decent indy.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

gonna take it back tues.will mention vac pipe .and bleeding coolant,thing that gets my goat is that they said taken for test and every thing is ok .
