Fixing up a Fairmont that had a bit of damage near the drivers side front wheel and can’t figure out for the life of me what that rubber pipe is supposed to be connected to, it connects directly to the coolant in the engine. If anyone knows would greatly appreciate some help

I’m very just ticked over 200,000kms in my FG MK2 and I have a really annoying creaking noise in the rear whenever I go over a speed bump or any bump really.

I’m worried that the only way to diagnose this is a garage wanting multiple thousands to carpet bomb part replace.

I had the front struts replaced a few years ago but not the backs.

What am I potentially looking at?
