   Hi guys,
   
   Got a coolant leak on my S1 106 Rallye due to a split coolant bleed valve cap - where could I purchase a replacement from?
   
   I've been told it's just a regular dust cap, but I've tried a couple and it's still leaking
   
   Many thanks,
   Daniel

   Lmao. it's not a regular dustcap. It's a nipple cap.
   Just go to your local scrapyard, they'll surely have a saxo in, just find the top bleed point and steal the nipple.
   
   Whilst your at it, steal the middle bleed nipple as well, you'll no doubt snap that over tightening too.
