I connected it back up and it started making some strange scratching noises no idea what it is but it was disconnected in my lcr

 

[mattyholmz89]

Also got this which I'm guessing is a forge dv... was told car was standard so I guess this is a bonus =/

If it helps it is connected to the twin fans... also noticed I think the slow speed fan is broke so ill need to sort that out meh...

first pic- it seems it must be connected into conector (left, on first picture). If it making noises, check maybe someone unpluged it because fan (or anything which uses that connector) is broken.

second yes forge dv

 

[mattyholmz89]

Gonna class the dv as a win =)... didn't know it was on and was going to get one eventually anyway... I'll plug it in and see if anything changes as I say it's been unplugged and I just noticed it when trying to freshen the bay up

if you are sure it was for slow speed fan, then ok, fix it, it will not do harm but its way better to start cooling with slow sleep fan, than wait for higher temp to start hi speed.

Probably worth servicing the forge dv, it looks like it's been on a while.

I don't know 100% it is for slow speed fan as I didn't run the engine with it connected but ill have a look and see what I can find tomorrow should have all day to mess it up =D all in all I nearly soiled myself when it tipped ever so slightly above 90 when idling...

First pic looks like the small after run pump which continues to circulate coolant around the car after its switched off. mounted to the back of the rad pack a small cylinder with pipes attached?

This ^^^... so I'm guessing I should connect this... any specific reason it would be disconnected?

Just a case of taking it off cleaning it up and checking the spring?

No it'll need new seals. Huge leak potential so deffo service it, or stick an OEM one on there which is fit and forget.

Forge do a service kit which comes with everything you need, from memory it's only about £15. Well worth it in my eyes to prevent/cure a leak.

+1 looks like secondary coolant pump conector to me.

Tms and euro car parts were wanting 85?

Mmmm... looks alright just need to get so many little things sorted first of which is getting a mate to give it a good detail =)... Thanks =) helpful forum as always

 

[mattyholmz89]

Just fitted my s2000 airfilter and I think that mixed with the forge dv makes for a very nice and not overly chavvy noise =) good times although I forgot to reconnect the MAF so my pants were once again soiled when the asr warning light came on
