Water leak - where to check
« on: 29 December 2009, 15:17:56 »

The car has developed a water leak.

All the below are recently changed this year

HBV
Head gaskets
Oil cooler
One LPG hose
Water pump
Coolant bridge washers and bolts

So where do I look next please?

One symptom, the windows seem to mist up easier than normal but carperts are dry
