Yay, another problem!

Went to get my tyre replaced this morning.


Got home and noticed water pouring out of the car and steaming from the bay.

Just about to jack it up and take a look.

Thoughts ?

That’s a lot of water coming out mate! No coolant pipes at the back of the engine except for heater matrix. Can’t distinguish which side it’s coming from, but could stat housing, heater pipes or water pump.

If you want to use it before fitting new hoses, chop pipe and stick a bit of copper pipe in to join.

Straightforward enough, some of the pipes are a pita to get off but if you don’t care about keeping them can just cut them.

Has anything sharp been rubbing on that? or even if it was a small hole would the pressure then make it look so much worse?

Good luck getting it fixed in time.

Nothing in the vicinity mate.

I would guess it’s just fatigue (20 odd year old hoses)
