Dropping it off tomorrow evening forvADS to check it out first thing Thursday.

Good luck, keep us posted. [-o<
Ta. I'm pretty confident it'll be done OK & that it's the reason the water was dropping. It's amazing how much water you can lose from what looks like a relatively small leak.

Think I'll get them to do the transmission fluid whilst it's in.

If they do the transmission fluid, make them promise they'll clean the filter, magnet, crud etc properly as otherwise it's pointless (almost)
