Oil? Is it the rope seal gap between the gear box and engine?

Or water ingress? If so, could be the doors arent closing tightly enough on the rubber seal and it runs along the channel under the front wing, and appears in footwells as if it's come from behind the bulkhead

You in the P5 Club? I can get contact numbers if you need to ask the Men in The Know

If only it were that simple.

Losing water from the cooling system. Thought it was a leaky gasket on the thermostat housing but now, after several months investigation, i am beginning to believe there is a minor head gasket failure and it is overpressuring the coolant system and pushing the coolant out of the overflow pipe.
