I have just bought a 2002 WH Statesman and have noticed a leak of coolant at my feet on the drivers side. This seems a bit odd to me as I've never heard of this happening. I can't see anything obvious under the bonnet although I havent had a very good look, and the radiator resovour constantly needs topping up obviously. every thing else seems to be working fine. Any ideas why coolant is leaking in this area?? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Mick

Hi Mick.

If the leak is inside the passenger compartment, its more likely the heater core or the plumbing to it. Get somebody to look at it.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0

I had a hose go on my work car at the heater unit under the dash,, even though it was only about 12 months old.
