    Default About coolant tube?

    Well recently i bought a Holden VT Berlina,
    but the coolant tube has a hole in it, because when i put coolant in there it leaks out from the bottom of it,
    i was wondering how much it will cost to get it repaired or get a new one?

    Sorry, but what exactly are you talking about. Could you please describe it/them or include a photograph. There is no such thing as a 'coolant tube'.

    ooh ok, the tube to the overflow bottle , so is it leaking from the tube itself , or from the bottle , have u cheaked that the overflow bottle isnt just to full? or can u see the leak?

    if its just the tubing then should be a easy cheap fix, and if its the bottle im sure they would be cheap from a wreakers

    check if its full with the dipstick on the yellow cap, if so, u may just have to much fluid in it , as it will over flow onto the ground if too full
