fritzenberg 3 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 i'm having to top up my coolant from just below min level to max every 3 weeks after changing the aux water pump,crack pipe and all coolant hoses,i know it looks like somthing i've done but i honestly cant see any leeks anywhere! took it to the garage who did a pressure test on it and they can't find anything either*-) i've checked the oil filler cap for mayo too and it's clear so not the head gasket.i've also noticed that when i turn the key(to turn the electrics on,not start the engine) i can hear a slushing sound in the dash area but there is no water in the footwells so does that rule out the heater matrix?any ideas as it's rather expensive having to keep buying coolant?cheers in advance Link to post Share on other sites
Rikki 2 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Check around the thermostat....if you did the crack pipe you did you change the o-rings at both ends? Might not be located in the pump or stat end? i did the same when i changed the t.stat? Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 as above and check that when you put the housing back on it went back on flush as mine didn't first time and was leaking again - the other thing to check is the rad - I have a small leak in mine at the mo from somewhere !!
