Can anyone offer some advise.My 996c4s has developed an issue with coolant loss seemingly from under the middles of the car ?.
I need it looked at before next Saturday as due to attend Silverstone Classic. Can anyone recommend a garage near Mk I am based in Olney to take a look at it.
Thanks Darryl
 
Hi Darryl

Have you had a look under the undertrays yourself,
Good luck

There are loads of water pipes running under the whole car
MOst likely to be a pipe
I had my Oil Cooler replace in LIncolnshire (But thats another story) and about 18 months later I had a leak from "Somewhere above the engine" Turns out the Indy who replaced the Oil Cooler had twisted the pipe going into the top of the oil cooler
PORSCHE WOLVERHAMPTON also replace a couple of pipes going into the engine.
I picked the car up and within 5 minutes the Coolnd blew again - 2 more pipes at the front of the car

SO check all of your pipes and when the job is done get a full pressure test

The whole job cost me well under 400 pounds including the coolant (Which from Porsche id 120.00)

If you remove all the undertrays you should see where the water is coming from
