Tabx80 0 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm beginning to think my car wants to die. Every problem solved is followed by a couple of new ones. I lost some coolant yesterday. Tracked down the source of the leak I think. The hose from the heater that goes into the block just above the heat shield. Looks to be leaking where it's clamped. It also has a bulge but that looks like it should be there. Is it a new hose needed or can the hose clamps become weak over time and not hold the hose tight enough. And my brand new outer cv boot has a hole in it. Dumped grease everywhere again. This is the second one with a tear. Is there anything that possibly could be connecting with it. Cheers for reading.

Lukey. 381 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 If a hose is bulging it needs replacing, and clips can become too loose to contain the pressure Link to post Share on other sites

Tabx80 0 Posted September 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Ok so sorted the Hose and bled the system. Now have a new issue. It's hard to explain but there is a humming noise coming from the dash. Tried to get it on video. Baffling me. Video. http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc395/tabx80/B4644106-A8BA-430B-A250-746189D4DFA0-8926-000008C916337971.mp4Any suggestions would be appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
Tabx80 0 Posted September 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Been searching through different forums and the aux water pump seems to be the noise I'm hearing. However once started the noise comes and goes. Just wondering the pump is giving up perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites
