I notice on Design911 that the spring clips are now replaced with Jubilee types so obviously they have given trouble.

As these cars are now quite old it may be a good idea for people to check these clips before they let go completely while out on a run!

Looking at the other end of the pipe the spring clip there is also rusty but not so bad and I will replace asap.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I found a small coolant leak from under the right side of my 3.4 engine. It was from a small rubber elbow pipe easily accessible. The clip looked rusty so I decided to replace it and to my horror the original spring clip just easily broke away when I started to remove it. Rusted right through. I have now replaced it with a stainless steel jubilee clamp from Screwfix and leak stopped. Looking at the other end of the pipe the spring clip there is also rusty but not so bad and I will replace asap. I notice on Design911 that the spring clips are now replaced with Jubilee types so obviously they have given trouble. As these cars are now quite old it may be a good idea for people to check these clips before they let go completely while out on a run! Does anyone know of other similar spring clips on the car that are also likely to have this rust problem. I would rather tackle it in the garage than on the side of the road!

Thanks for that info Steve, Just check all you can see. it's also worth checking the aluminium power steering hose ferials if you've not already done so. Regards Andy
