Coolent leak at rear block from matrix pipe
Got water leak coming from the metal pipe that comes from the rubber hose that goes/comes from heater matrix,, it seems to be leaking where it bolts up ( has 10mm bolt and best describe it as it looks like the aircon pipe joins when they bolt down)
Is there a o ring or sonething in there? I do have a picture but can't seem upload it off my phone ATM |
Pics need hosting online by something like photobucket.
Could it be the rubber hose split, not tight enough, or perished. I hope it's not the heater matrix, that's a pig of a job:( |
The metal pipes do corrode and can leak - there is no O ring on that connection - just an interference fit.

Yes it the pipe that is near the red arrow( nearest knock sensor) it's rotten away where is joins into the crossover pipe
