R33S2 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Was it a new item or second hand? What did the hoses look like, were they cracked or swollen? Were the hose clamps in good nick? I could ask more questions but you will have to at least find the source of the leak.

Craved Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 hoses are on the outside of the car... uses plastic pipes direct from the core to go through the firewall.. so wont be hoses or clamps.. i guess unless its leaking outside and running into the holes..

ferni Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 If you didn't use a new one then this is what you get... if you did, then that sucks!

Stel Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 I had the same problem with my heater core. It was leaking the day before Christmas and i was driving to Port Macquarie from Sydney on Boxing day. Rather than spend all of Christmas taking out my dash i just re-routed so i have no heater now. I think im going to change that because it is getting freezing.
