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

Parked my 996 to find coolant leaking out the back of the car. On further inspection it seems that i have coolant leaking out of the bottom of the tank. Very annoying as the AA couldnt fix it and the car had to be towed away. Was wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

I opened my garage to find two puddles about 50mm Sq x3mm deep.Not much Could see it'd run off the exhausts. I took it too the OPC who checked it -all OK. Realised I'd had left the car facing uphill canted to right after a long run. Then given it a wash. I reckon it just pushed a bit out under pressure. It been Ok since. Note its easy to cross thread the cap if you remove it when cold
