Coolant leak.

[DaveDreads]

This started a few days ago when we had the baking hot weather, not sure if that's relevant or not.

It's not easy to take a photo of it but hopefully it shows where it's leaking from,
it's the hose on the left of the rad, it'll be a bumper off job but I just though i'd get a few peoples opinions
before it goes in to the garage.

I guessing it just needs a replacement hose?

Oh and I have no clue how to repair things like this, as I don't know where that hose leads to.

Un-clip hose, cut off offending split (and thus shortening hose) refit hose.

Ah ok cheers dude. :approve:

Only thing is I have no experiance of dealing with stuff like this, I know it's as theoretically 'simple' as
removing the bumper, taking the hose off, catching all the coolant, cutting the hose, then refitting,
but i'm sh*t at anything other than studio photography, drinking booze and acting a tit.

I might see if any of the West Midlands lot are up for helping me.

If you know what you're doing, the bumper takes no more than 5 minutes.

If I lived close i'd do it for you baby. x

Haha, I appreciate the sentiment mate, you're a good bloke. :approve:

Had the same problem, looked like the hose then once I removed the bumper etc turned out to be a small hole in the Rad.
