Hi all, long time reader, 1st time poster... was hoping i'd never have to post a new topic as it generally means an issue...
Basically had our car serviced the other week, they said there was coolant slowly leaking.
I thought I'd check it out. Noticed the coolant levels had gone down slightly, considering the recent service.
Did find out where the leak is. There is a small rubber tubing running from over the top of the radiator to a small inlet point (guessing this, its either in or out) to the coolant tank.
It seems that part of this connector to the radiator has broken off, so the rubber tubing is connected just with a clamp with about 2mm of connection point inside. See pictures below.
My main question is, (A) am I up for a whole new radiator or (B) can I avoid, and if so how.
Thanks
Joe
