Whipped the plenum off, can't see anthing wrong with what we've done, all looks dry around the new cooler.

I then took off the cambelt cover, and it seems to be coming out from around water pump area.  Whipped out water pump, and whilst the seal doesn't look that good, not sure that its actually leaked.

If the top of the V is dry, and there was coolant coming from behind water pump, not sure what else it could be.

Therefore, I'm going up dealer to get another pump, and see what happens then...

water pump would have been under sudden increased pressure since you fixed the oil cooler. SO, if it was already weak, now was the time to blow a big wobbly.

On the plus side, at least the cambelt is noce and clean. ;D

So, is this wreck, sorry lovely car ready for sale now then?
