    Half an hour of frantic searching but finally found the new Cooling Flap and spring that has been hidden away for the last 18 months or so...
    So I do have a job for TE this weekend.
    No sign of the VWH delivery yet so it may just be the one job!

    Yes you should have them to be able to flap correctly and not flap unnecessarily :D

  9. Well there are some in Cyril but the Thermostat has failed and while B'ing about with the flaps I broke the spring so they are permanently closed. Or would be if I hadn't wedged them open.
    I now have a NOS Thermostat on it's way to me so need to sort the spring out...

    If I can get sone advice from @pkrboo on how to change them without removing the fan shroud...

    These newfangled t5's look good they even come with a container on the side, how did you get down the drive ? @Robo
