Homer Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Have you had the air con on by any chance? Although I find it difficult to imagine it's that considering the temps lately! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 did you have the aircon on on the way back? Where is it leaking from and is this clear water hot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Its not coming out of the windscreen washer reservoir is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notts_TT Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 Aircon not been on lads, its coming from middle rear of engine. I had this with my last 200sx turbo too???? The thing that baffles me is that its clear water and not pink..... Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notts_TT Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 Oh and rad is still full to brim... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprash Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Im sure there is a drain feed (from the splash panel thing up by the wipers) at the centre rear of the block......but if its not coolant (pink) then it will only be water caught in the body work somwhere thats draining out.....it cant be nothing else ?

Notts_TT Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 i got it from a garage in shirebrook mansfield. Because i haggled so much i got no warrantee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 i got it from a garage in shirebrook mansfield. Because i haggled so much i got no warrantee. Surely if it's happened on your way home though it's not fit for purpose, warranty or not. Your rights if you buy second hand cars from a dealer When you buy a second hand car from a dealer, you have a right, under the Sale of Goods Act 1979, to expect the car to: be of satisfactory quality (taking into account its age and mileage) meet any description given to you when you were buying it, and be fit for the purpose (for example, to get you from A to B safely) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notts_TT Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 i know the sale of goods act pal as im helping my bro in law who has bought a write off. ↲the thing that bothers me is that the water is not from the cooling system as its clear and the water in the rad is pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Not much help Dan, but I'd take it back to the garage, not like you brought it from a private owner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notts_TT Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 hi. Just called garage and he said he left the air con on. And the water will be from that i guess. Cheers everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angarak Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Does this sound/look familiar Stick-R? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=192605 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notts_TT Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 yes mate, sounds like we have come a cropper to the same thing. :-) cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angarak Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I dont think there is a problem with mine, its still working fine, so Im hoping my aircon unit is very efficient and the water im seeing is just condensation from the pipes behind the bulkhead.
