I was driving my vr6 today when I spotted the water temp light flashing. Stopped the car and steam was coming from everywhere. After investigation coolant was everywhere under the bonnet.
On tickover nothing comes out, if I rev it a couple of times coolant pisses out of the top RHS of the engine, it seems to be coming out under the VR6 DOHC cover, then pouring over the 3 connections hid under the plastic cover (I think these are connected to the water pump?)
It takes about 4 mins to empty the tank.
Please help, what is at the top of the engine that can cause this?
