Coolant Loss

Post by darkhorse1210 » Thu Sep 02, 2010 3:40 pm

I've just tracked back through the history on here and noticed that others have experienced coolant loss and I seem to be experiencing the last couple of times I've used the car over large distance.

Some pointed to the fact that the radiatir may be leaking.

I guess this is difficult to diagnose remotely but my main radiator is <7,000 miles old (18 months) so I would be very surprised if this had a leak. Could it be a pipe issue perhaps?

Well, hopefully this isn't as bad as first thought.

No cloudy gunk under the oil filler cap and no coolant loss at all on a 200 mile run yesterday.

Phew
