A pressure test would be great!
I might wait until I am settled in (next few weekends or so) then make some plans.

If my camping stuff is delivered by Sat arvo, I'll be going to Wandin on Sat arvo for a few coldies and staying over. If not, I'll make the day trip Sunday.
Cheers
Ralph

Ralph1 malph, hopefully someone has fitted a jubilee clamp and it has just come loose. You can always try optimism.

The game is afoot, Watson. The A/c drains on the right hand side , normally. A mod is to switch the drain to the left, so as not to have water dripping on the front drive shaft. The devious Moriarty designed that , I'm sure, Bob

Air con drains can not leak coolant. I am suggesting that the leakage under the vehicle is from the A/C, not the coolant system. Any one who has a D2 will know you always have a puddle of water under the vehicle when stopped, from the A/C . The water pump has a tell tale hole, where if the seal is cactus, coolant will leak out. First thing, check the tell tale hole. There has been no indication so far of whether the coolant level is going down proportionate to the water under the vehicle. Bob

Have a look in behind the turbo at the little hose, a known leaker.
This hose towards the rear of the motor, water pump is at the front behind the power steering pump.


When the motor is cold have a look for a coolant stain.
Often the remnants will disappear once the motor heats up.

If you want to bring it up here i would have all the tools you need and lots of space
