Hi just found forum whilst searching for information on leaking coolant from my Uly.
Its a S registered 2.0 EL, which was parked up for 2 weeks over Xmas & NY, she started OK and ran fine on short trip to shops on Tuesday evening, on Wednesday morning found wet patch under car, checked coolant and added around 2 lt, thought might have a split hose so started up and ran for a while without pressure cap, no obviouse signs of leak. Put pressure cap back on and again ran for a time, temp did not quite reach normal operating temp., still no sign of leak whilst idling or immediately after turning off. Left standing till last night and found a new wet patch under car. Have not yet checked how much coolant missing yet.
Any suggestions as I really do NOT want to take to a dealership.
