Hi Guys,
Had a big issue today while bringing the dog for a walk in the park.
The park is 4.5km drive from my house
On the way back I noticed the engine temp rising towards the red so had to pull over. I was only around the corner at this stage so limped home.
When I got back home I noticed a puddle of coolant from where my car was parked when I left.
After jacking the car up I noticed it seemed to be coming from under the engine beside the sump plug and not anywhere near the front where the radiator is located, I could see the fresh coolant and when I shine a torch into the engine bay from above I can see wetness from the left hand side of the engine.
There are just too many obstacles in my way to actually see where its coming from and its starting to get dark so I'll fill her up with coolant tomorrow and see
But just wondering if you guys would have an idea on what it could be?
I drive a 2007 WRX 2.5 Hawkeye
I have attached a picture , the bottom right is showing the sump plug
Its going to have to go to the garage but appreciate any advice as Im sure I will probably have to wait weeks for an appointment which is a killer as its my daily.
