Default Small coolant leak

I noticed today a small coolant leak coming from a coolant line on the left hand front side of my 2000 XJR, it only starts to show the leak about 20 mins or so after turning the car off. Probabaly about a 2 inch drip leak, small but still a leak. Looks like its coming from a silver or metal color coolant line. I cant pin point it though....any ideas gang???


Thanks,
Shaun

These cars are plagued with 'small' coolant leaks more than any vehicles I have ever owned.

The best solution is to borrow or rent a set of coolant system pressure test equipment from one of your friendly local auto parts stores. Several have such programs. Pump up the system while cold and the offending leak will be obvious.
