Keith, have a look at this ancient thread on the rusty coolant pipe - Click Here -


Hi vaho, that's a good repair you have already then, as G says the thread covers the story of where and how to repair the metal coolant pipe. I think it was G or Phil who uploaded a guide to repairing the pipe in steps. I'll take a look Keith to see if I have a photo of the original pipe. My original pipe was leaking slowly and in really bad condition. It ended up in two halfs simply by pulling it out!! It was so corroded and weakened before I removed it!

 Hi Keith,
It was the start of the coolant pipe journey unfortunately for me, as I started to replace coolant hoses throughout the engine from that point on. If your coolant level is stable and at a good level all the time that's a good sign. My car is stable now, but I've only 3 original pipes not replaced after 2 years hunting for coolant leaks.
