Oil Cooler - Coolant leak
Hi There,
Noticed a bit of a big puddle at the front of the D3 4.2 Petrol V8 this morning. Topped up the coolant, which i'd done the day previous and popped it over to my local friendly mechanic! Just had a call that he's had a look and the coolant leak appears to from some pipes and bits in regards to the oil cooler, though it is difficult to see without removing bits and getting a good way into the job. He just looked up the book details to replace the oil cooler and they estimate 16hr!!! Obviously i can keep topping things up in the short term, he said it wasn't leaking in the garage, but my drive does have a slope that i park nose down on, which may be a factor. Anyway. Looking for advice, pointers and so forth! Ta, Lee
