Well ... (scratches head) ... can't see where the coolant might be leaking.

As discussed, it prob was we didn't top up the rad enough.

But keep an eye on it on you next trip. Check under the car for drips with the engine running, then check the level in the rad again after an hour of cooling down.

You have my number. Let me know if it persists.

May not be a leak, common thing is a vacuum lock which falsely indicates a full radiator on initial fill.

I try to measure (approx) the amount that I drain and the amount that goes back in......if I only get 1/2 the amount back in it's usually a vacuum lock.

Yeah thats what I told Adrian also this morning at his place. Thats why I like the thermostats with the air lock valve on it ... or I usually drill a tiny, tiny hole in it myself. I think thats where we got caught out. Swapping the turbos over, I knew we'd lose coolant, but didn't quite have the opportunity (given the shit weather - yes, we were outside) to measure the loss.

We're certain it was lack of coolant, not loss of coolant.

[rad100]

hmmm... isnt there a hole on top to bolt up?? or is there two underneath like the gtr coolers to mount?

[Damo_R34]

ill have to go check, i have forgotten what it even looks like haha

[Min_R32]
