water leak from thermostat cover/case

Post by kaelan » Mon May 05, 2014 7:20 pm

Traced a water leak to the thermostat area, dripping either from joint between cover/case or somewhere in that vicinity.

Any known problems in that area so I can give the mechanic a heads up on what might need replacing?
