#1: White Marks on Engine Cover Author: Danny., Location: PeterboroughPosted: Wed May 18, 2011 12:24 pm ---- Ok well a bit strange this.
I have a HDi and everytime i look under the bonnet the engine cover has white marks on it and it seems to be coming from the expansion bottle.
Is this a case of changing the lid? or has it been overfilled?
Cheers

The car never goes past 90c even when flooring it..
It always sits at 80 when doing a constant speed so i don't think its overheating and bubbling.

A new coolant expansion bottle cap is cheap enough anyway.
