Coolant Leak
-> 206 Problems

Hi all,

Been a while since reporting a problem.

Randomly after about 30k miles I have had to top up my coolant yesterday. Thought nothing of it. But this morning had to do the same, and was missing more today than yesterday. Got to work and left it 10 mins to find a puddle under the middle.

Its not coming from the radiator, but its dripping from somewhere onto the subframe and ARB then onto the ground. Are they any coolant hoses running to the bulkhead from the front?

The hoses that supply the heater?

maybe you have the main plastic pipe that drive water from the water pump to the thermostat housing cracked,or the thermostat housing itself is cracked.

Best way to check is to get the cooling system under pressure,using the special tool,and see where the coolant is leaking.

It's coming from above the starter below the air filter housing.

I can se a water pipe missing it's clip. Don't know why this would suddenly start to leak though.
