Thanks Doc I do not have a sunroof I thought that the screen was bonded but if the bond at that bottom corner was failing would the water come into the scuttle drain or the inside of the car.

Would a water leak at the. bottom corner passenger side of the windscreen end up inside the cockpit.The rubber seal here is not good and I dont think the water is coming from the pollen filter housing drain. :'(

Thanks Doc I have always tried to keep my level on the split ine between base and top of the tank which is where you say, I replaced my tank cap a few months ago with a new one I wonder how accurate they are as far as pressure is concerned.

Thanks James I should add that the thermostat appears ok as the top hose remains cold for a while until a surge of heat comes through And it appears that the water pump is ok also Time will tell.

Update Water level overnight stable. Started engine no smell or bubbles in tank put my old cap on tank. At 90c fan came on and stopped at 89c. The top hose temp was 84c and dropped to 78c infrared thermometer.The hose pressure dropped but did not show much of a collapse when fan stopped .the tank level was slightly higher than when started. It appears that the change of caps has made some difference to the pressure in the hose. now wait and see how it goes on a run. James I have 2 pumps? one under the battery and one under the expansion tank.
