... Steam sprays all over my bonnet and windscreen., the car loses all its water/antifreeze and I'm left standing in the freezing cold at 11pm thinking how in god's name im gonna get to work the followong morning and more to the point, how the hell I'm gonna fix it.

Had a quick look last night and it's definately not any of the hoses that lead into the radiator and its not the rad itself. It seems to be coming from someonewhere under the inlet manifold or around that area anyway. My current guess is the water pump but hey I don't know too much about cars, hense I thought I'd post on here for a little advice.

Anyone help?

Yeah I did the whole water pouring thing hense I know its coming from around about that area but it was a little too dark to narrow it down to an exact point.

Whats a coreplug? and I'm 95% sure it had antifreeze in? why what are u thinking?

Regarding the wrong forum thing. Do I have to repost or is there a nice mod out there who could move it for me?
