Coolant leak from unknown component


Recommended Posts

Morning all. My car passed it's test today with an advisory of a coolant leak. The tester told me that he doesn't know what the component is and its a little hard to see with the lower covers in place. It's beneath the engine a little way back from the alternator and can only be described as a round disc or plate with a couple of bolts. Unfortunately I don't have a picture but was hoping I might get an answer or suggestion on here. He can't book me in for a couple of weeks so I'll top the rad up with coolant when it needs it until it's done.

Literally did this yesterday on my old RX300.

 

I just drained the system, unbolted it, cleaned/dried everything, fresh silicone applied then bolted it back up.

Left it overnight before filling the system again just to be safe but all seems good.
