hendy3 0 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Mainly after longer jouneys 30-40 mins theres major water escaping from underneath the engine. There is also mass amounts of steam coming from the header tank and regularly have to keep the water topped up.The temp gauge is giving a normal reading and as far as i know its working fine....fans come on from time to time so thermostat is working.Could this possibly be a blockage?

bungy 2 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 The main thing is to find where the water is coming from. Run the car until the thermostat opens and circulates fully and pressure builds in the system. Link to post Share on other sites
