GeoScars Posted June 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Well the expansion tank slowly gets lower and lower, I've checked hoses, engine cap for Mayo, radiator and still I'm none the wiser as to where its going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Well it must be going somewhere dude. It won't just evaporate, you will surely find a spot under your car? I'd be tempted drain the coolant, bang a can of radweld + water in, drive it for a few hours, drain again, put coolant back in, forget about it.

Dblock Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 When ever you see the poddkd or trace the leak smell it. That way you can see if it if is coolant, washer fluid or water just stuck from rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoScars Posted June 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 The only bit of water I've seen is under the front of the car and it was a little spot I wasnt to worried so I have no idea plus I can't get my cap off to fill it up and see if it leaks and follow it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put some man effort in!!! They get hot and seize, but they're plastic, no rust. GET ON IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skezza Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hmm, next way would be a hair dryer maybe? You may have to break it off so you could do with buying a new cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
