Evening,
I've had my landy for around a month or so now and am loving it.
For the past few days, I've noticed two patches under the beast when coming back to it from it being parked.
They aren't puddles but patches on the tarmac.
One is oil and the other is a red/pink colour (coolant?).
The oil seems to be coming from the pipe connected to the oil filter. The man I bought the car off said he had serviced it recently, including filter and found it to leak so also changed the metal connector on the pipe (can't remember the name of it). It was dry for a good couple of weeks but the suckers now leaking. Can it be fixed?
The coolant is a little harder to find. I'm going to have another look in the morning but can't seem to find where it's coming from. The bottom of the sump is where a couple of dots of it are before it drops but I don't know if it's running onto the sump from somewhere or not.
The cambelt was done this year.
Any advice appriciated.
Thanks
