So my lads 2007 ve berlina got hot on a trip back from melbourne didn't over heat just hot. Got the raa out and he said the thermostat was gone as the top and bottom radiator hoses where different temps. So we got her towed home and as the closest "mechanics" to me are ultratune i booked it in with them to get the therrmostat done. Only to get a call from them telling me that they didn't think it was the thermostat it was the welch plugs in the valley and they had to take the heads off to replace them and replace the timing chains and it was minimum 3 grand and not replace the thermostat
Hoping someone here can help put my mind at ease and answer some queries i have
1 was the raa guy correct saying the thermostat was screwed
2 is ultratune trying to rip me off
3 are there welch plugs in the valley and do the heads have to come off to replace them
any help would be great
