burbleboy Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Hi, I topped up my expansion tank last week and re-checked yesterday, nearly empty!No leaks from hoses, no white smoke, no gunge on oil cap, no visible leak from tank. Radiator itself is in good condition and coolant present when take rad cap off! Also heaters are nice and hot.I searched the forums and only came up with thread regarding bottom hose as common fault but i checked mine!Replaced intake thermo gasket a few weeks ago but cant see any leaks when car is running. Any further suggestions peeps?Alastair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Must be a leak somewhere I would say. check your rad again as I had a smx which leaked and it was really hard to spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burbleboy Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 is the passenger floor wet/dampHi there,No passenger footwell is dry mate!I checked the thermo intake gasket yesterday and found that two bolts needed a half turn to tighten so i'm hoping it was that. Getting head gasket test and sniff test done at my mates garage this week to rule that out!Thanks for the replies, posted this up in case i missed something!
