I'm Dribbling...lol

[debbys2k]

Hi all
i've got a dribble.lol
i've got a 190e and its leaking coolant from behind the top fan belt wheel.
i've had a good look today and it looks like a bolt has come out and the coolant is escaping from the hole. i did find a nut on the under tray.
is it ok for me to put another bolt in or do ya think its maybe sumat more serious...:-? cheers debs

Seems I just beat you

Sounds like the coolant pump.
A more technically savvy person who knows your car will be along shortly

Personally I'd replace all the bolts just to be safe, but I don't know your car Might be a gasket/o-ring as well.

It'll be the water pump leaking, the hole you've seen is not for a missing bolt it's the leak off hole when the seals in the pump start to leak usually as a result of the bearings starting to fail :???:
