[QUOTE="jarance, post: 578152, member: 21"] b33mer, looking at the picture, there tell tale sign that the hose connector are worn out beside the obvious radiator cap. The white stain on the insulation of the bonnet is most probably from the leak from the radiator cap. There is another 2 hoses on the bottom of the right side of the engine which also tend to leak. You may need to remove the air filter in order to see the leak. My advise is to change [B][U]all[/U][/B] the rubber hoses at the same time as part of the periodic maintenance if you need to top up every 2 weeks or so. [/QUOTE]
