Hiya, got a mysterious coolant loss problem with my my00 classic - I can hear a small amount of air bubbles when I start the car and I found the header tank virtually empty this evening when I checked it... Any common places to look for leaks?

Car is totally standard (bar a different back box) so I *DOUBT* it's the head gaskets but will get them sniffed whilst it's still under warranty

 

hey im new to scoobs but k-seal is this wonder rad seal stuff thats a perm fix to coolant leaks, get it at any good car parts dealer! they reckon it can even fix head gaskets for ever! dunno how true all this hyp is but worth a go surely?

 

check the sides of the rad for stains. they often split and only leak after a good run.

 

Is there alot of pressure in the system when the engine is warm??

 

Well the top rad hose is hot but not rock hard, so I dont think it's the HG

 

As said, check the sides of the radiator. Mine split down the side. Quite common problem.

 

the header tank cap my be usless heard of that happening a fue times
and pesamistic view
h8 to say it but check your oil (look like mayo? white??)

hope its an easy fix for you
