Hi,

I have a 2000 V70 XC with 81000+ miles and a cooling system leak. It seems to be in the area of the expansion tank and leaks below my front passenger door (sometimes). I have had it to the mechanic and all he did was tighten the hose clamps. I was refilling it about once a week so I thought I'd let it get to the point that it became obvious so I could take it back and have the guy fix it properly. Now I have to fill it once a day. I never let it get low so don't get all bent. The light comes on when it gets to the low fill line and I add water. I picked up the expansion tank but did no see any coolant pooled. Any ideas? It doesn't seem to be the radiator (not leaking from the front). I have an extended warranty on the car but don't want to take it to the dealership if it is not major cause they will soak me. Help!

Thanks in advance,
Rob
