    First 'Breakdown' 2012 Puma90

    First Issue Ive had with the little guy since purchase,

    A hose clampt from the heater pipe has rubed through the top radiator hose. causing me to create a small nightmare trying to merge over to the left so i wasnt blocking the road, got it there (on idle)

    Dealer has to get the hose up form Melbourne so wont have the car back till tomorrow.

    anyone else have the same issue? and might be worth checking under your bonnet to see if the heater hose clamp is rubbing on the radiator hose before it rubs through like mine

    doesnt determ me from my love of the car though

    your not the only one, I've had the turbo to intercooler hose rub through. It seems to be because all the hoses just lay on each other unsupported.

    Yep the same with mine...both hoses....the turbo hose fell off and the rad hose rubbed a clamp and leaked...all fixed now! Well documented on this forum.
