Just an idea, but you may have a cylinder head gasket leak which allows the cylinder to pressurise the cooling system. But I don't know whether its possible to tell which it is - may have to change both :(
Re-shaped and re-sized gearshift lever. Best driveability mod you can do!
Extra thick soundproofing in the boot (trunk) to quieten my stainless steel exhaust system :)
