Question, I own a Subaru Outback I have the sound of water running in the dash, no one seems to know what is causing it,
Recently had new head gasket, radiator hoses fitted?

We finally received a much needed decent downpour last night it has been overcast all day but no more rain unfortunately, our lawn is like straw.

Sound of water in/behind the dash sounds like in the heater Shirley.
Go for a drive on a hot day up a big hill & turn on the heater to hottest setting. It might flush the air bubble/lock through.
If it does you should check the coolant level straight after you do it.
If you have a dealer close by ask them if there is a bleed off on the heater hose.

Thanks Bruce excellent info, Bruce was going to jack the front of it up & leave it overnight he thought it might have an air lock in it, maybe we didn't need all the hoses replaced, the noise was there when I had the head gasket replaced.

Maybe you didn't need all the hoses replaced Shirley, but it is good peace of mind. Especially if you have had a problem - such as a head gasket.

"anks" here---
Just had a massive storm at "THE DYSART BUNKER" and all power is out. Very strong cyclone type winds, heavy rain and lots of lightning and thunder. I think that the power will be out for some time.
I am running the house fridge, lights and tv on the motorhome generator, so the WEIS BARS are ok.
"Mr.Russell" being deaf is still asleep and not concerned with the storm. I am going to have a meeting with my mate Jim Beam.
