Well, it appeared to be a slight bit down this AM - possibly 3 - 400mls, so I topped it up cool, and all is right in the world!!!

Now I am just waiting for the smell of the spilt coolant to burn off...

Are you sure?

"Behrman Capital, a private equity investment firm based in New York and San Francisco, announced today that it has acquired privately-held Pelican™ Products, Inc, a global leader in the design, development and manufacture of unbreakable, watertight protective cases and technically advanced professional flashlights."

Hoping its not Pelican Parts. Consolidation rarely benefits the consumer. Could not find anything on them being acquired doing a quick search.........

Bought it from ECS tuning in Ohio, who also purchased Pelican Parts the Porsche vendor.
Apparently ECS wanted to buff up their P car parts market share.

Dock, you are correct - I buy Porsche parts from Pelican Parts, instrumentation and gun cases from Pelican Products.
