VT V6 Series 1.
After turning the car off, a couple of minutes later its leaking coolant, its wet the bonnet mat, and sitting on top of the radiator near the top hose and a puddle under the car. The coolant is definitly due for a change, now a browny green colour.
Should I be checking anything else of why its leaking? I only do long trips so not sure if its doing it on short trips, but it does seem to heat quicker in traffic, but not overheating.
How many litres of coolant do I need for a full flush, and what percentage water? Im on bore water so should I be buying demineralised water?
Do I need to bleed the system afterwards, if so how?
