1.9 SDI coolant leak

Featured Replies

Hi,

 do you have any idea what might cause this coolant leak?
It started yesterday all of a sudden when a coolant light came on, i topped it out with 0.3 liter of coolant, today(20 km later) same thing,
here is pic where is it visible below.
Any suggestions how could i diagnose the problem myselfs

 

Its kind of a mistery to me how the coolant got to the left circled point on the picture

There's a hollow chassis tube under the plastic cover there, with a drain hole just there. It drains the bit under the master cylinder area; might be rainwater or coolant that's overflowed from the expansion tank.
