Do you have a Power FC???

If not dont kep driving the car until you are sure the overheating has been sorted otherwise you are risking a rebuild very soon buddy.

If you have the Power FC then you can monitor the temp as you drive whereas the stock temp needle wont move until you hit like 115oC!!!:eek:

I dont have a power FC

I took the car to a garage hooked it up to PC type thing said it was running fine, but they are not a rotary company just a friend.

In which case there is a worry on overheating the car to the stage of rebuild???

If possible get it checked out ASAP as the rebuild will cost you 3K or there abouts, remember the stock temp gauge only starts to move @ 115oC so by the time it hits the red area it could be over 120oC which is bad mate.

So please get it to  a specialist and see what you can find bro??
