LukeManic 0 Posted May 10, 2007 Hello guys, just discovered my vr6 is leaking coolant. It's coming from somewhere behind/above the oil filter housing. I'm prettty sure it's coolant as it's pink and tastes sweet. Any ideas where exactly it might be coming from and what needs to be replaced? Also would a leak like this cause an increase in coolant temperature? Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CazzaVR 0 Posted May 10, 2007 Seconded- stat housing. Could affect the temp. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LukeManic 0 Posted May 10, 2007 I've seen a guide on how to replace this and tbh it looks a bit past my level. Any idea how much it would cost to get this replaced? Thanks for the replies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldie 2 Posted May 10, 2007 I know VR6-South recently had his done at a garage, give him a shout. I had to do mine recently, it takes a while to get through it but its by no means impossible, maybe you live near another forum member who could give you a hand?
