Bloody car is giving me grief

after not being used since thursday evening got in the car this evening to find the dash reading -7

tried to start the car after what seemed an age waiting for the Heater plug lamp to out

the car did start but then I had a a series of Beeps and the Coolant Lamp flashin constantly

Checked the hand book and found I should switch off which I did anyway and check coolant levels

Coolant levels fine so took the car for a drive slow at first to defrost and then a little more spritied Once warm air was entering the cabin through the blowers still when I turned the car off and then restarted the beep returned !!!!!

what do I need to try as this evening is forcasted to be colder again with wales last night being colder than greenland

The connector on the coolant tank, removed it and see if hereis any condensation/frost. Dry it out and spray some wd40 if you got any.

Don't understand how you had the amount of problems you have. What's still left outstanding?

starting from cold or stood still for few days

hot starting

idle speed needs uping - engine cuts out if i brake sharply , revs drop below minimum

smokes really bad when cold - a blue smoke

all seats have gone boney , can feel metal thru them

also on tick over , if you blip throttle slightly you can hear what sounds like a piston slap / knock
umm cant think what else off top my head
