So after observing this leak for a couple of days its very similar to many other radiator leaks that have been posted

http://www.brickboard.com/AWD/index.htm?id=142028

i.e. occurs on drivers side, coolant seen going down fins on drivers side, only occurs when outside air temp is cool, seems to be coming from where hose 'meet' radiator and ofcourse there is very 'little' coolant leaking everytime this occurs

i figure i'll use Prestone Stop Leak - however the product says to put it directly into the radiator -- i could be wrong but i don;t think volvo radiators have direct inputs - normally has to be put through coolant reservoir right?
