Hi again update checked me water bottle today cant remember the last time i checked it it was empty so topped it up took the car down the road and back and the water level stayed in the same place but it lost power again then went back to normal there no mayo or anything under the cap or in the dipstick but could it be a head gasket on the way out or something.
