Hi chaps,
After a 100 mile drive today I was about to go out this evening and noticed a line of drips where I parked my 940 turbo and an ominous puddle next to the kerb. Lying in the snowy road I see steady dripping of coolant from the rear of the engine. Cant see any problems up top or at the front of the engine. Grovelling around underneath I see the dripping is coming from a coolant hose I never new existed! There would seem to be an oil cooling, filter holding housing with a flow ad a return hose. And one of the hoses would seem to be leaking. One of them has a 13mm drain bolt on it. I tightened it a quarter turn but sadly it wasn't that, it must be the other hose that has split or something. More lying in the street to look forward to tomorrow. It looks a swine to get hands on, Nasty little U shaped short hose.
Any tips gratefully received.
