I have a low pressure leak dripping from the bottom area of the radiator (left hand side looking fron the front). I have not recently done much vehicle diy but fancy sorting it myself but can't find a detailed view of this area in my manual. Does anyone know of a manual which looks at this area as I prefer not to do it blind, if at all possible. Thanks

I would of thought a haynes manual would have all you need, I haven't got mine with me to look at but I'm pretty sure it will have pictures for when changing the fluid so will show you everything you need to look at

Thanks but I checked that and I am afraid that it doesn't show it plus I contacted one of the emanual publishers and they also do not show it -but thanks for the reply

If you look from power steering reservoir the hose goes downwards and then meets a junction with another through a steel cable tie. My one got buckled and started leaking/dropping, fixing involved replacing with a new steel cable tie. If your's the same problem, when fixing watch out the hoses do not detach or liquid will spill all around. Good luck!
