General Parts Questions

[zaria123]

Hi Guys

Not sure if this is in the correct location, but because it was a question about various parts I didn't want to post numerous topics for each part.

My Elan has just gone to the garage and needs some parts, which the garage aren't able to source locally (Northern Ireland, UK).

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I need:

1) Radiator
2) Rear Discs and Pads (he has been able to source front but not rear)
3) Cooling Fan Switch
4) Temperature Sensor (for the temperature gauge)

Thanks in advance for any assistance,

Alan

Cheers for that,I;ve had a look and can find various radiators, and one listing for rear discs.

Can;t find the fan switch is it called something else?

Also there is only one set of rear discs listed at £211 is that a reasonable price? Its seems much more expensive than front ones? Or is there an alternative or upgrade suggestion?

Any other suggestions of where to source the temperature sensor? Or is it used on any other vehicle?

Cheers

The cooling fan switch was there yesterday but now gone but why do you think these need replacing? £211 for the rear discs are the going price welcome to the world of lotus prices

With rear brake discs, it could be an option to get them skimmed (£45-50 as a ball park figure)

Before replacing fan switch, check that troublesome earth lead up high on the fan shroud. That was why my fans stopped working.
