I’ve been a lucky boy with my Plus 6. 19 plate, honestly never had a rad problem. They did change everything this summer as a matter of course, done 2500 miles in last 8 weeks and no problems. Now reading 18,000 miles approx. Maybe they don’t like being stood and need to be hammered.

Interestingly, my previous car, 11 plate Porsche Panamera , 5 recalls, aircon , electrics, brakes, power steering and wind screen.

Discovery commercial, 3 recalls, can’t remember what for but only 3 years old.

This week, BMW 330 Electronic gas recirculation valve, another recall happened this spring but can’t remember what for. It’s a 67 plate and it’s had 4 recalls.

Basically, it seems that all these modern motors have on going problems. Porsche was pretty bad I remember, they had my car for three weeks waiting for parts in 2017. The year I sold it.
