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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Noticed yesterday i have a slight water leak coming from rear left, onto exhaust. Leaves nice puddle after i've driven it. Doesn't seem to empty chamber but leave level very low. Is it likely a hose?

POST 2Original post

Hi Liam, I think you'll find there are plenty of posts regarding this.... reference to 'cracked/split' coolant header tank.... or pressure cap I thnk with it's position it becomes brittle through the heat but I stand to be corrected hth Paul
