Hey Guys,

Was just having a look in my engine bay the other day and noticed what seemed like a slightly old puddle of coolant (had dried but was still green) under the manifold. Checked all the nearby hoses none of them seemed wet at all.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

I believe ur thermostat housing is leaking. Easy enough to replace the gasket.

Have a look around the mating area and U may see coolant drips or run markings.
