never ending problems

whitey0044 · 17-04-2012, 19:57

Hi feels like everyday i have new problem to ask about on here, so this is the latest. Popped the bonnet to check levels and noticed what looks suspiciously like coolant low down on the engine on both sides. Can't find any leaks or see anything when the engine is running. Any ideas what it is would be appreciated unless you tell me its HGF.

Where is the highest point of dampness? Its only running around the bottom of the head it'll probably be the inlet manifold gasket.

hard to describe but if you can see the yellowish blob in the first pic thats pretty much as high as it goes. Pain in the arse there was no sign of it at all on sunday. Is that en expensive job and need doing quickly or can it wait awhile ??
