Yes but it's teed off to the engine block. It's from that end it was leaking.

Your reply got me thinking. I put a bowl under where the fluid was dripping and collected it. It was just like clear water so it must be from the AC. I assumed that there must be a leak somewhere else so i had my son rev the car while I looked underneath and I noticed splashes of water which I...

Yeah, the warning light came on originally a couple of weeks ago. I topped up the tank & it was ok until this Monday when the light came on again. The tank was definitely low. I topped up the tank once again & this time the light came on after only a day. I checked the level again this morning...

It's clear just like water which is now making me think it's the AC & the leak must be somewhere else.

I wonder why the leak appeared to stop when I turned the heater off? Unless the water was from the AC & I have mistaken it for a leak but surely the AC unit wouldn't give off so much water? Also, I may have had the AC on for maybe 10 minutes after work but when I was inspecting the car for the...

Thanks for your reply. It is difficult to see where the leak originates as it's dripping from the undertray as you say. I noticed this morning that the heater was blowing warm air when turned off. Not sure if this is normal? As I said previously i couldn't see the leak until I turned the heater...

Hello all. I have a 2007 Leon FR & the coolant warning light came on Monday. I filled the tank up & it came on again after only a day. I could not see any visible leaks until this evening when I jacked up the car & had it running. At first, there were no leaks until I put the heater on warm &...

Thank you. I have used some Epoxy resin. Not sure how long it will last though :)

I snapped the cover off of my 2007 FR so I thought I would see how easy they are to change. I took the housing out & noticed there was a small pipe within the housing. The pipe doesn't appear to be connected to anything. Any ideas?

I thought my front washer jets had become blocked so I gave them a quick clean out with a small piece of wire. It helped a little but when I go to use them I have a leak that drips down under the front driver side wheel arch. I want to have a good look at the pipes on Saturday but not sure where...

Cheers thanks for that I will take a look tonight & see if I can see anything obvious.

Right ok I shall see if I can see anything obvious. I assume your pic is looking from the ground up & that's the sump you can see? Is the water pump at the lowest point of the car? I know the alternator is at the top looking down. Should the car be running to look for any leaks around the pump...

I had a quick look last night but I am not sure where I need to be looking. There's a plastic cover under the front end. I guess I need to pop this off to see the water pump?

I had the water pump changed & cam belt on my 2007 FR around 3 months ago & everything seemed fine. 8 days ago I had the warning light come on for the coolant level. I filled it up & it came on again yesterday so after 8 days & around 1k miles. Apart from the coolant loss I cannot see any other...

You mean there could have been an airlock in the system when the pump was changed & it's made its way out?

I have no idea what grade he put in to be honest. Just been out in it & the knocking is only there for maybe a minute on start up. Before I put oil in today the knocking was constantly there at idle. I will check the water daily & see if it drops.

I have a 2.0 diesel seat Leon FR. I had the cam belt and water pump changed by a friend about 3 months ago. Not sure if the following are due to this. I noticed a relatively noisy ticking sound at idle. Once I increased the revs to 1000 it disappeared. I had a oil change done at the same time. I...

I am going to give it a go without taking the drive shaft out. Hopefully I can get a pry bar in where the rubber is as I am replacing the ball joint I can afford to damage it a little. I am pretty sure the holes are not elliptical so I should be able to do a straight swap.

Thanks for your reply. How easy it is to remove the drive shaft? Is it just a 36mm socket onto the centre nut? I was looking at separators but the slot in the middle doesnt look big enough on the ones I've seen advertised.
