Hello folks, My first post and its an ask, sorry bout that. My CDT Tourer has developed a significant coolant leak, its goes from nothing to nearly drained away in a couple of days. The problem overheating just appeared one time, I topped up a whopping 2 litres and thought oh well, maybe i'll have to change the coolant as there were signs of cottage cheese. In the process of prevaricating it overheated again and I've ended up getting ramps and trying to figure out whats leaking.


I'm having major trouble locating said leak, the coolant seems to be everywhere. Underneath its as if someones just tipped a pint in the open bonnet and its dripping all over the place. Ive had a look around but I'm absolutely none the wiser. Each forum I've looked at seems to have the Photobucket image hidden behind an upgrade your account notice. My photographs are only useful inasmuch as they prove a leak.

I've read positive things that I might be able to fix it myself and by the same token I've read that its an absolute nightmare. Can anyone shed some light for me please?
Cheers.
Mike
