Leak !!!

Post by BongoRuthin » Sat Oct 01, 2011 7:57 pm

I am new to the world of the Bongo hence know nothing about it mechanically. I have a leak which I can't work out what to do with.

The liquid leaking out is colourless and odourless - I imagine it's water but I don't want to taste it in case!

There are two photos here - one from below which has a nozzle roughly 2/3rds up, 1/2 across which is where the leak is from. The other photo is through the bonnet - the golden coloured piece in the middle of the picture is the component with the leaking nozzle on the bottom of it.

Any help gratefully received!!

Been using your aircon & windscreen washer by the looks of it :wink:
One looks like the condensate drain from the ac, completely normal, t'other looks like the drain from the centre of the windscreen.
May be an idea to familiarise yourself with how to check levels though while you're worrying.

Wow - an instant reply. Thanks very much. I will indeed familiarise myself with the vehicle - levels and all!

Stick your location in your profile by clicking on "user control panel" top right of the screen, may be a local meet or someone local that can show you the ropes.
Welcome to the forum BTW :D
