[QUOTE="jarance, post: 583515, member: 21"] If there is coolant leak after 24 hours, then it is easy to trace the leak. Remove the air filter casing and look for sign of [U][B]white stain[/B][/U] around the radiator, hoses and under the air intake manifold. Take note that water when evaporate due heat will leave a stain mark. However, the stain can be misleading as it could be due to water overflowing and during bleeding. I usually would remove the air filter box and wipe clean all the white stain mark and take a lot pictures. By using this method, I would be able to tell where the new leak is by comparing the pictures. [IMG]http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o271/pbjy/E46%20Thermostat/WATERDRIPPING.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
