You've made a daunting job look almost appealing!! Very well demonstrated.
Good stuff. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Such an easy thing, yet you are the only guy I have came across who can explain it in a way that doesn't make it overly complicated. And showing us how to do it is a big help. I topped mines up earlier and I usually just pour it in and walk away, but I will be able to do it properly now. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad the video helped, Sobo. More Corsa content to follow. Best wishes from CarSpyTV.
Another awesomely helpful video. Made to look so easy, and most importantly so well explained. I'll be doing this at the weekend. Thanks yet again CarSpyTV. Top job!
You're welcome, Mark. We have more Corsa videos filmed and ready for release. Good luck this weekend.
Very useful and informative. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful, Bob.

Thanks I done minebi didn't know about opening the bleed plug at the top of radiator when refilling coolant maybe the reason mines getting hot because it needs bleeding air out. Great video I watch all yours cause there easy to follow and we'll put.

Keep looking for my electric fan on my transit I think someone has taken it have a good weekend
The Mk1 Transit is clearly hot stuff. No need for an electric fan! Enjoy your weekend too, Ian.
So helpful! Thanks crazy car doctor
You're welcome.
Very good! I used to be motor mechanic and that was explained well
Thank you. That's appreciated. Best wishes from CarSpyTV.
Great little movie well explained and easy to understand. 👏🏼
Thank you, Scott. More Corsa content to follow.
Great video Stephen. Was I your crying friend :p. Happened to me, years ago on my e36, I loosened the rad cap a little and it fired all over mr. Lucky I was wearing my glasses. Still have a decent scar from it. I’m glad you earned of the dangers. Keep up the great content :)
Thank you, Matt. Glad you enjoyed the video. I know a few people who've been sprayed.
It would be interesting to demonstrate the risk on camera. For example, build up pressure in the cooling system then release the cap remotely (from a great distance). That could be figured out.
However, it's one of the ideas that should probably remain on the 'best not' list!
Fantastic video very well described thank you
Thanks Ben. Glad you enjoyed the video. More Corsa content to follow.
@@CarSpyTV brilliant I look forward to it

Thank you🫡
You’re welcome.
Amazing
Glad you enjoyed the video.
How long would it Take at 2000rpm until the Main cooling fan should come to life? Had Mine running for about ten Minutes at 2000rpm but Main fan Isn't firing up... Else it seems to have worked just fine as per your instructions.
Thanks a lot for the awesome instructional video.
can you pleeeeeese explain how a engine works? x
Hi Dave. I haven't covered this in a video, so the following link might be handy. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine
Good video.
My corsa d heater never blows hot, so foggy windows all the time.
Also coolant keeps going low.
Told heater matrix problem, how much you think it'll cost for a mechanic to fit new one?
A new heater matrix isn't expensive. You can even get a used one on eBay.
The mechanic's time is the main cost and that varies from garage to garage.
What key usin this work
What’s the easiest way to get radiator hoses back on and do you recommend replacing the spring clips with hose clamps ?
Hose clip pliers. Also, If necessary, I replace clips like-for-like.
@@CarSpyTV okay thanks very much
You didn’t mention that the coolant additive you are using is an OAT product which stands for Organic Acid Technology and greatly helps in preventing corrosion.
Thanks Paul.
Was just looking for this info. Thanks!

Hi, my friend put screen wash in her coolant so I flushed it out and put fresh coolant in, however, the fan is not kicking in and I feel the pipes are pretty solid so I think the thermostat isn’t opening. Any idea what might have gone wrong? The fan was working was working fine before
Hello. The following link might give you a few ideas. See:
mechanicbase.com/electric/radiator-fan-is-not-coming-on/
@@CarSpyTV thank you, hopefully it’s just an air lock in the system
drain plug is stuck and 13mm won't get it off, can I get a replacement?
Yes, easily.
@@CarSpyTV Would you be able to help me with a supplier for one please?
Euro Car Parts is worth a look.
hi just wondering on my polo i had 2 or 3 bleed valves to open , now i have this car is there really only that 1 bleed valve on the radiator and thats it. Just wondering thanks
Hello. Only found one in my Corsa.
thats great good to know thank you@@CarSpyTV
because i here a swoshing sound of water when accerlerating, i think this is why@@CarSpyTV
What can you do if the heaters don’t work ?
Depends what you mean by 'don't work'. Fan doesn't spin? Fan does spin but there's no heat?
Iike the way you do a little pause before the next scene 😅
I'm hoping to win an Oscar for Best Director!
Please my Opel corsa D catalytic converter was stolen. I need some to buy. Anyone who can help me get some to buy? I will be very grateful
Sorry to hear that. Perhaps you can get a replacement converter on eBay. Or, you could phone a local scrapyard and see what's in stock. Good luck.
@@CarSpyTV thanks for the feedback…I really appreciate it
