Title: Where is it going?
Post by: Chopsdad on 03 March 2007, 23:09:15

Checked water level today and sitting half inch below normal.

No contamination on oil filler cap or dipstick and no drips on garage floor.

I'll check hoses tomorrow, but thinking maybe HBV?  Pics of best place to look would be great  ::)

I had coolant disapearing on my 2.2.....and couldnt find the leak (well i did find one......but it didnt stop the coolant disapearing! and strangely this leak only happened when the engine was turned off)
James discovered my water pump was leaking...when he changed it....i have noticed the level is a bit down since....but it may have been air shifting thats cause the level to drop a bit.
I need to monitor mine.

So yes.....hbv is a fav......split pipe another posibility.....or even water pump could be the culprit
