Hi all, I'm new to the forum so apologies if I have posted in the wrong section :-)

I've had a coolant leak for a few weeks and have managed to identify the problem it's a steel coolant pipe fed from the expansion tank and down around the front of the engine then round the right hand side.

The leak is on the joint in the picture.



I've had a look at trying to remove the pipe but can't see an easy way of doing it without removing the manifold,injectors........

If I get it out I will attempt to braze the pipe to fix, if that feasible or replace but can't find any part's on the tinternet.

Has anyone else had this problem ? any ideas on where I can buy a replacement.

Thanks for your time,

Tom :-))

 

Opps forgot to say it's a 1998 1.8t
