warwickA2VR 0 Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 I had a bad leak from the thermo housing - fixed that and it stopped leaking as proven by newspaper under car - no drips. Since then i've been closely watching the level in expansion tank and every few days the water drops 1/2 cm all at once after staying level for days. I top up !! The car is off the road but is occasionally moved but not run for more than a couple of mins. Is it poss that air bubbles are finding there way out and therfore dropping the level since i changed the coolant to do the thermo job. Is there a more sinister reason.

Andy B 0 Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 heater matrix is what i would say as well but before you go mad it could just be air bubbles as the engine automatically cycles them out, go on a long run but watch temp and take some spare water Link to post Share on other sites
