Update Over heating is cured !!!!! New clutch is in. Now got 4 new tyres and had it tracked Still get noise and slight vibration above 30mph Battery fine I kept treating like a covential car and turning fully off. Done Coventry to home 48 mile every day for last 2 weeks tells me am doing 33-34mpg Going to attempt the thermostat cure tomorrow lost my links can anyone be please repost Body work is going to cost £350 with respray and need anew door All electrics now working Will be a fine car soon just time and money

Thanks hopefully this will be the cure to it.

Not sure if this a common issue? I have a battery drain, when I switch on lights console lights for heater and stereo go off. When I turn off the ignition fully I have to switch off wipers etc as they continue working if left on? Think there is a live somewhere which is running after the engine is shut off, where to start checking and is there a likely cause

Turned out (I hope) to be the pipe under drivers seat underside of the car was split. Done a radiator flush. Fingers crossed all ok as of tomorrow as taking for a test run

At least then if I don’t get anywhere I know it’s the sealed unit fingers crossed this fix works

Hi I will do the cheaper smaller one first. Thanks for the info weekend job but one I can do

Is that the one in the sealed unit ?

Hi all I recently have brought a Voyager 2.5CRD I thought it would need a little tidying up but this car is unravelling like a can of worms. The car is 2004 mark 4 I believe the LX model My biggest issue is over heating, does about 6 miles, checked oil and dip both black, no discolour. The previous owners I think let it stand and seemed only to use water. I have just seen a post saying HOAT is best to use is this correct for the 2.5crd. It also has a air lock as no heat is getting into the cabin its blowing cold air solidly. Its fairly flat west of Birmingham and I think it did go up the one slight hill we have but cant be sure as it was rush hour at the time. I did put some coolant in Predstone but a couple of litres the expansion bottle was over filled so when it went hot it lost about halve the reservoir Second problem but less tricky to solve is clutch is slipping, better when warm but will slip going up hill. I have ordered a new clutch. Body work has a bang which has affected the sill and this will need to be cut and welded and new sliding door on the rear sorted. 4 new tyres and some new pads at the moment discs probably 12 months and all should be good! However any thoughts about the over heating I would like to hear, suspension drive and everything else is fine and the car runs very well.

Hi all Have 2.5crd Voyager 2004 manual brought as a project so will be posting a lot with all kinds of questions. Havent owned a chrysler before but have restored a P38, Alfa Romeo renault safrane
