    Potential water leak?

    When I was on the NW meet the other week Danny mentioned the water was getting low - which was strange as I knew I'd done it not too long before...

    Topped it up and its only a couple of weeks later and its dropped back down to min again?

    Now I know i need to put some coolant in as I have no idea how much is in, I doubt a lot if all this water is just boiling away but tonight I noticed a small patch of water on the drive - I've sat under the car and watched with the engine off and on and can't find anywhere it could be leaking!

    My valver was always fine - seems a bit strange this one takes more water at the moment...

    Any suggestions on what it could be?

    Sounds like your headgasket has gone as well as your bottom end.

    Get rid

    Actually I don't think its as bad as I made out at the top but anything to do with leaks and engines I start to worry!

    Just wanted to know what I can look for?

    And where potential leaks might be?

    The fact of the matter is the water on the drive might just be my silly stupid washer jets/bottle being twats again

    Water on the ground?

    Head Gasket and possibly your lambda sensor
