hey guys we are currently touring Morocco and hav come across a prob. About a month ago we noticed the warning light on the dashboard telling us the collant levels were low in both the normal tank and the expansion tank. we filled both up and all was fine but this kept happening every now and again. Then last night we put the engine on for about 20mins while stationary jus to charge the battery a bit. When we turned off the engine we heard a dripping and looked under the van to find a leak. After inspecting the engine we think we hav found the leak, i can upload a photo of where exactly, but its near the end of one of the pipes coming from the expansion tank leading into the engine. we think this is the leak because the area has a white residue around it. Any help would b useful!! do u reckon we need to replace something or what, lol


This is the leak from under the right rear wheel

any split hose will need to be replaced.. there's no repair.
water pumps will let go too by dumping water from behind the pulley
