Hi all,
The coolant in my 307 HDi is disappearing from somewhere.
I don’t remember which day last week, but I parked the car and returned to it less than 5 minutes later to see a huge puddle of coolant on the ground under my car.
I was near a radiator shop so I went to them. They inspected the car and then pressure tested the system. It was holding 15 pounds easily.
There was no sign of a leak anywhere.
They topped up the system and bled it and I drove the 40 odd kilometres to home.
I didn’t check the coolant level until yesterday. It’s gone again.
It’s been raining here ever since I got home that day. And I had also parked the car in the grass. So I don’t know when the coolant came out.
The glow plugs were changed just before this. I don’t know what relationship that has to the coolant problem, but I’m mentioning it in case someone thinks that there’s a link between the two.
There is another problem with the car that I think does relate to the glow plugs being replaced. But I’ll start a separate thread about that.
Thanks for any help, as always!
Cheers,
Andrew
