Andy?
OK. The engine has an alloy cover on it - I assume that is the question? I'm "new" to Alfa's, but not cars.
Fan came on and was running very well, constantly.
Radiator, I went to have a look, but the car won't start at all. Oddly the central locking didn't work either. Odd.
I popped the bonnet to find the battery missing - my son had "borrowed it" as he killed his!
I will get a new one and look for the bleed screw...
