Thanks @dazza I had a look at the pics on that post and I'm either blind or my car doesn't have an inline thermostat.

Can someone look at my pics and let me know

dazza:
Wait a week or so. As i'm doing the main thermostat and both inline ones i will take some pics of exactly where it is.

GTIEagles:
Nice one, thanks.

Ive just done my cambelt, water pump and both the thermostats. Mine is an 05. Ur inline stat is pretty easy to locate. Heres a pic to help u. If u imagine ur car didnt have the front end on its on the pipe to the left of the throttle body pipe.  I took a couple pics. Its on the pipe with the yellow writing.  The actual stat is next to the wiring loom





Dont even bother trying without hose clip pliers

dazza:
I bought the pliers last week by the looks of it they will come in handy.

Was the main stat as much of a pita as people say?

I'm about to change the cam belt, water pump, main stat and inline ones. Any tips would be appreciated.
