Dear All,

I just swapped my '99 1.6 Palio Weekender for a 2001 1.6 Marea Weekender

Both have the coolant pump/thermostat problem...thats not really the reason for changing.
We changed cars because bottom rust persistently tries to remove righthand rearwheel and the link between the frontwheels.
Now working on the heatingproblem....hope to have that solved by the seller

Grtz, PymerOne.

hello, and welcome to back FF,

out of interest..do you live in a coastal area..?? where corrosion is such a problem,

charlie

Dear Charlie,

Yep i do live quite close to the sea... 20 minutes drive, which i do about twice a month, dogs like to run free in the dunes and on the beach.

Grtz, PymerOne.
