Hi there
I noticed a coolant leak coming somewhere from below the turbo heat shield... Was this blanking plug on the oil cooler (later engines has this blanked from factory). Found a new one from another maker on the auto parts store that worked great!

I urge all D2 owners to remove the turbo heat shield (mine is staying off btw) and take a look at this plug/hose, and possibly renew it. Apparently the heat in that area turns rubber into brittle plastic!
