About coolant tube?

[Shaunn]

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?

..Bump..? .

im pretty sure i saw them advertised at autobarn or supercheap etc for around $30-40ish per hose

i take it your talking about one of the two main hose's?

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'.

 

[Shaunn]

Sorry i don't know to much about cars but it's the tube with the yellow cap that says coolant on it on the bottom right hand side.

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

Well i might go check soon but when i put coolant in it you see it come out from underneath the car.

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
