Sorry to hear you had to be brought home by the AA - your problem sounds like a slightly easier fix than the cause of my AA trip home!

Assuming that the car ran fine when you put it in the garage & that you havent done anything to the cooling system in the mean time......

Given that there was noting coming from the bleed on the thermostat housing I would think the thermostat is stuck. If you have a heater and that was working then the pump was working, which also points to the thermostat being stuck....

i didn't have the heater on so I don't know if that was warm or not....... Must be something about us Northeners..... Had it been on the fan might have been enough to keep it down a little. I'll find time to sort it out over Christmas!

Thanks for the suggestions!

Sounds like a job for our favourite tool. Tap on the stat would be first thought if nothing's changed since it went away.
