My Six had a "swirl pot" added while the brakes were done, apparently as a precaution.
Not sure what cars are getting a new rad.

Don’t know but never heard of a steel rad on a car before. Weight, corrosion, poorer thermal conductivity and even if stainless, would be expensive to manufacture.

If I understood correctly Dan at KH intimated that CX cars that hadn't had any rad issues would have them left in. Not sure if they qualified for swirl pot though which MMC seem to be backing as the "final fix".

Mine hasn’t had any radiator problems but MMC have told me it’s getting a swirl pot fitted. Having said that it’s been there 7 days now and the tracker tells me it hasn’t been moved 1cm since they took delivery. I have had 4 Morgan’s now in the past 6 years. Three of them new. I’m starting to wonder why I bothered.

I took delivery of my Plus Four auto on September 1st 2021 and have not had any radiator problems so far. I am told that when it goes in for the brake recall it will also have a swirl pot fitted. Apparently this is the case for all cars.

Snap. I too took delivery of a Plus Four auto on 1st Sep 2021 and have had no brake or rad problems. Now had the recall done, so fingers crossed.

Hi Derek,
Happy to hear you have had your brakes done. Have you noticed any difference?
Best regards,
John

I 'think' they are slightly better but far from wonderful. I drove a Ferrari Roma today and nearly went through the windscreen when I applied the Plus Four amount of brake pressure, But given that I hardly drive fast, the Morgan brakes are adequate,

Not sure if anyone else has been advised - my dealer says that there is also some clutch work to be done on Plus Four manual version. First I had heard about this. Replacement of “clutch supply line” - a rough translation from German.
Aside from that they confirm new brake master cylinder, changes to some brake lines (I guess due to new MC configuration), swirl pot and attendant coolant pipe modifications are all part of the fix package.
Clutch was a new one to me.
