no worries Jezza, globe is the best thing i ever bought!! and it looks like i am having a black light party

but to the original post, no my car didnt overheat, it would loose about the size of the reserve tank every day or so, but mine was a very small leak! some leaks are quite bad, usually if you lost coolant and it over heated its a heater core, mao at evo r does them quite cheap in comparison to other garages, and stay away from subaru unless your are a millioniare, dont get a second hand one as once they are 10+ years old, they usually corrode anyways as mentioned so you could buy a new "second hand one", and pay $800 in labour to install it and it breaks again, however expect to pay quite a bit as it takes 6-7 hours to remove the dash, etc (well thats what they told me anyways)... is the passenger footwell wet? can you see coolant under the carpet (the one that sits under your actual floor mat) near where the heater core is?
