    car overheated yesterday, steam and dripping out the bottom.

    the white resevoir to the right had pink liquid in it, but that all seems to have gone
    topped up with this whole bottle yesterday, but now gone again

    cant really get underneath it, but it looks like it is still dripping, so would the likely diagnosis be a cracked/loose coolant tube? i want to sound vaguely knowledgeable when speaking to a mechanic.

  • Find the leak.

    Refill with water and then bleed air out, but something has gone wrong for the water to escape. Is there a leak under the car? Hope for a water pipe is damaged as think the water pump runs with the cambelt. So pump and cambelt then it could be the headgasket.
