Thanks for your replies, helpful
will investgate further
I like the idea of the texta mark on the header tank. I shall do this next week after the coolant has been replaced and setteled.
Had another look around this morning, taking the plastic shrouds off and the engien cover as well.
No sign of coolant but some oily mess aroudn the fwd rocker cover
thanks

Yep, same thing happens on the Td5 (as per Dave - Blknight) and on a V8 that I know... although it probably is the heads on that... ;) that and the little pipe that comes out of the bottom of the tank :pQuote:
