Well - it happened

Text from the wife last night - temp on the car had risen to 120 degrees and the coolant warning on the DIS was flashing!
She stopped the engine straight away (luckily at home) but couldn't open the bonnet to check anything..............

This morning, put it on the drive on the ramps and the leak appears to be around the oil filter area so I assume it must be the plastic pipe thingy

Any idea what has to be done to get to it the pipe and check it/replace it??

Cheers
