Hi,

Very interesting - I've often noticed a small dribble of coolant on the wing under the tank.. I was assuming it was the overflow/cap letting some out.. maybe I'll have a check around under the tank...

cheers,

Steve

Is this yet another Bongo speciality that we can all look forward to experiencing?

After posting the same on the power steering thread yesterday, I'm now saving this sentence as a macro for future use. It might even do for my next year's mission statement/signature!

It's just something to look out for IF you experience related problems :wink: Same goes for the steering fluid leak thread :wink:
