i all,
I've got a small coolant leak from the top radiator hose where it attaches to the radiator (see attached pic).
I'm not sure if it's the hose, the clamp or the radiator. I've changed the radiator cap as I thought it's coming from there, but when i changed it, cleaned everything, the coolant is only coming from underneath the hose.
Has anyone had this issue before?
Do you have to flush coolant when replacing just the top hose?
I don't want to have to flush/replace coolant, and when I take it off it's the radiator that's cracked. Trying to keep the downtime as much as possible (and it would take awhile to get a new radiator).
Addy
P.S. how do you attach the full size photo?
I've just added the imgur link below to the full size
