    Jas mate i just looked at one that had a coolant leak and it was the fibre washer on the Fan switch on the Radiator. The dealer will fix that under warranty. If it is it will be around the front left area and is fairly common, ive done a couple now

    Every three or so months. My radiator light comes on. But it doesnt slowly drop. It just randomly drops one day. Without a puddle under the car....

    Yeah check down the left side of the rad at the fan switch and it takes a fair bit of time to puddle mate if any , drop your bellyt pan off , jack her up and look up at the fan switch, had a couple now

    Yeah Jas , what goes wrong is either if you or they (Dub) are lucky its sometimes just the fibre sealing washer for the fan switch, but in some cases it splits round there too so a new washer wont fix her.
    Good score mate gotta be happy with that
    Too easy
