[QUOTE="Herbert, post: 429593, member: 18029"] Jerman is absoutely right. when I replaced my vanos seals, also discovered that both inlet & outlet hoses were leaking. Replaced hoses & manifold gasket. Another incident happened while driving and suddenly "check coolant" appeared & temp shot to red. Quickly switched off air-con, then temp moved to middle (normal). Stopped and waited 45 minutes, slowly opened expansion tank and sure enough, water level low. Both fans were working fine. Did the bleeding and top up water (2 litres) and slowly drove to workshop. The cluprit... secondary water pump located beside the radiator was leaking. [/QUOTE]
