water leak

[hawk responce]

i have a water leak from drivers side of engine near the back, underneath the turdo heat shield, any idea's of water pipes that could be leaking in that area or any other idea

The front bearing on the Turbo is water cooled, or under the turbo is the oil cooler that runs in block water jacket behind the oil filter.

Also the two metal pipes along side the head can rust, or the hoses going into the heater matrix and drip onto the exhaust manifold.

You need to narrow it down a little.

look like the leak is from near the exhaust down pipe behind the turbo, heat sheild on top of exhaust manifold is in the way to see properly

[logey79]

heat shield comes off easy enough, but as for a leak around that part of the turbo i do not know. are you actually losing a noticable amount of coolant/water

[hawk responce]

yes,you can see it from the bottom of the engine, around the down pipe area just cannot see it from the top, booked in at Tonys next weekend

no need to worry then with dr.tony on the case.
