Hi everybody , I've just bought a land-rover freelander , when driving I noticed it was overheating , opened the vents and managed to get home .
Found out the coolant had vanished .
Found today it leaks coolant but I can't see where from .
It leaks more when driving or revving
I can see its trickling from.image above but not sure where exactly . Any help would be much appreciated

Can you post a picture that shows something useful?
The most common leak point is the top hose outlet from the head, which is made of nasty cheap BMW spec plastic.
 
I can try and get another picture tomorrow , it looks like it's coming from the top but I can't see because the manifold is in the way , I'm wondering if it's coming from the coolant flange , is that the pipe you're referring to ?

If it's leaking out from under the manifold, then it'll be the coolant top outlet to the radiator. They are known to fail as it's rubbish plastic. They're not expensive thankfully.
