Hello everyone, I have an overheating issue. Had work done on the AC and Clutch a little while back a couple of months after we have run into an overheating issue. It will cruise for aprox 20 minutes then rapidly climb into the red or soon as you take it over 100kmh it does the same cutting...

Interestingly I am in exactly the same situation. Things I know Its not the thermostat Its not the radiator Its not the fan I don't believe it is the head in any way (well hopefully). Has anyone had issues with the water pumps on these? Cheers Steve

Guys just want to give everyone a heads up. My brother just purchased a 2007 STX from these guys and I would like to relay his experience with them. He is pretty new to used cars (our family likes to buy new cars) and thought he would give buying a used car a go. He saw a 2007 STX he...

Krafty I will ring the SA roads mob and see what they have to say. Ourd yeah I will give the WA guys a call and see what they have to say your suggestion would be the better option I wonder where you would pay the stamp tax on the sale of the car.

Cheers guys I am leaning towards Car 3 the low km's are a big draw card though I am concerned that it may have been driven in reverse for the whole 40,000 (it is located in SA). The only thing I am slightly concerned about is that in SA you apparently have to lodge the disposal notice on the...
