    Default At that age where I'm leaking. – 30-05-2023,10:29 AM
    My car has a coolant leak and it appears to be from the water pump area and is possibly/probably caused by a failing gasket (according to the mechanic). I'm not getting any of the noises that I would normally associate with a failed pump.

    I would ordinarily just replace the pump and gasket (and timing belt/tensioners etc) but because it is a relatively lengthy job (bumper and headlights out / move radiators out of the way) I'm having trouble booking the car in soon enough that I can guarantee I don't need it on the day in question (carry tools around).

    If it makes any difference I have the 2.4 ltr petrol V6.

    My question is: gasket sealant added into the cooling system. Worth a try or bad idea?
