Ok, so my day WAS uneventful, until I just got home...
Pulled up, switched off the engine and heard water running... noticed steam at the front of the car.... Looked behind, and wet marks from the tyres all down the road. The road under the car is covered in coolant
Ive lifted the bonnet, and had a look with the torch... the coolant tank is almost empty... and the front of the engine and around the alternator and fan is wet.
Could it be the water pump? are they likely to fail on the 211?
Im hoping it could just be a rubber pipe
