| Damn Car Doing My Head In... Leak?? Hiya... Right, had a few posts on here re: my temperature gauge/coolant. So... I goes to check my coolant levels tonight, just to be on the safe side - and it's back below minimum again So... I figure I must have a leak ![]() I have an 04 plate Punto 1.2 8v... I'm waiting for the coolant system to be bled at the weekend... could this be the reason the coolant level is dropping? Any estimates to price, time etc, I would be really grateful ![]() Thanks for help in advance!!

| Re: Damn Car Doing My Head In... Leak?? If air has escaped and has been replaced by fluid then u might be okay I'd make sure when u put some fluid in - wait 5 mins for it to drain into the system, and then check and adjust and wait then check adjust ![]() When its Full - look for damp patches are Feel around all hoses going in and out of the engine / radiator and find the source of the leek Ziggy
