I noticed yesterday that i seem to have sprung a slight leak but cant seem to find where its coming from? As you look at the car from the front the water drips from the bottom right hand corner of the radiator from the metal shelf/tray below the bottom hose? Any ideas?

check the plastic end tank of the rad for cracks..

also it could be one of the small radiator cross pipes within the matric leaking and running down.

Had my rad go on the end tank as Simon says. It only leaks when warm and under pressure, but I had tell tail white residues showing where it was coming from.

Just for info, mine had done about 110K miles when in went

Thanks guys......it is only when its warm and under pressure. It's done approx 80k miles an had a new radiator 8 months ago.
I did do the heater matrix 2 weeks ago though so something might have been disturbed when i had the bottom hose off?
I'll check end tank in morning though
Cheers guys

gav when u done your heater matrix was it a bad job to do as mine gone now and i know it going to take most of the day getting the dash off and sorting it.

i would suggest getting the car an underwash so you can clearly see where the leak is really coming from
