| Post subject: | water leak |
i have a bad water leak but cant see where its coming from, as fast as im putting water in its just pouring out from underneath near the alternator, would would it most likely be? hoses or water pump? i really need help with this as im not very good with anything under the bonnet, its not drivable while its like this as it gets far to hot and cuts itself out. but its not holding any water at all, iv tried putting additives in it to plug up anything there might be but had no luck help would be great. cheers |

If it's coming out that fast you have a loose hose clip at best. You will need to get in the engine bay and look for anything not attached correctly. |

Failing that its the waterpump, if it is that then dont attempt to drive it because the timing runs the water pump and you dont want that snapping |

i would advise getting a timing belt kit aswell as you will have to remove the timing belt to get at the water pump |
