Thread: Coolant leak

2 known leakers on that side of a TD5.
1-Directly behind the turbo is a short stepped hose that goes to the cooler.
Either a planking plug or a hose to a pipe depending on the age of the motor.
2-Water pump, bolts to the rear of the power steering drive and has a tell tale hole in the cover plate.
It can be removed with the manifold in place but it's tight.

On the intake side check the fuel cooler end caps, the O rings in there are also weepers.
As you'll have the system drained I'd consider doing all of them in one go.

Thanks mate I will have a look!

Have already done the fuel cooler fix, did one end at a time because I like things to be difficult! I am more thinking waterpump then, it is too far forward for it to be near the turbo.

WSM says unbolt the aircon compressor and move aside to remove the water pump.
I didn't, but wished I had.
And I have small hands.....

Unbolt meaning just from the mounts or unbolt and remove entirely (which unless I am wildly mistaken would require a regas)?

Serpentine belt off and 4 bolts to move the compressor.
leave the hoses conected but be gentle when you move it due to age of the lines.

Thanks a bunch!
