Ok, it started leaking again..... I now suspect that the culprit is the rubber hose section in the turbo cooling hose....the one below the intake manifold. I saw some pink spray spots looking towards the back of the engine to the firewall. I did take pics, but only after I cleaned it. The spray marks were where the circles are on the two pics.

Dealer quoted $2000 for the job. Only the turbo water cooler hose is $700!!!! Hose and Intake manifold gasket kit from USA is only US$170, including shipping.

So, I decided to do the job myself, with the help of a friend. Any suggestions???????????

Thanks heaps again.

Ed
