My Audi 80 has been leaking coolant and I'm not sure of the source. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?
ReplyFirstly, identify where the leak is coming from. It could be from a cracked radiator, a damaged hose, or a faulty water pump. Once you've identified the source, you can either replace the faulty part or seal the leak with a coolant sealant. Make sure to also check the coolant levels and top up if necessary.
Before attempting to fix the leak, it's important to let the car cool down. Trying to fix a hot engine can lead to burns and injuries. Once the engine has cooled, you can check the seals and gaskets for any cracks or damage. If you find any, they will need to be replaced to stop the coolant from leaking.
In some cases, the leak may be coming from a loose or damaged radiator hose clamp. You can easily fix this by tightening or replacing the clamp. It's also a good idea to check all the radiator hoses for any cracks or damage and replace them if needed.
