REALLY wierd coolant leak 4.2 Supercharged *Video on post 3*

Been loosing coolant for a while. Had a very good look at the top of the engine and then underneath.

When the engine is running there is quite a leak dripping from the front of the sump, where the oil filter housing is attached. Pic below.

Above that is dry

I have no idea if this will work, but here is a link to a youtube video of it.

Waterpump running down to where you see it dripping, most likely imo

Thanks. I did think that, and had a really good look at the waterpump but of course without loads of dismantlimng you cant see anything at all!

Going to the LR indy here in France on Monday

Well, my newly found specialist here in France has fixed it. It was indeed the water pump, so that has been changed along with the belts, pulleys and tensioners.

I am taking it back for some new hoses that are a bit soft. He couldnt do them this time as they are on back order, and I needed the car back really.

Anyone in France who is after an indy, let me know and I will send you his details.
