The heater hoses that come from down near the water pump, then travel upwards together and through two plastic joiners leak through these joiners. GM will first replace the clips with proper hose clamps then if that doesnt fix it a few complaints will get you all new hoses.
Mine was fixed on a saturday morning and was written off on monday morning by a drunk/drugged driver that ran a red and t boned me at 90klm. (drivers side)
Cheers Jeff
PS check the level of your overflow bottle

Geez mate. Was everyone ok in your car? That's a big fkn hit!

Yeh all good tin snips, I was the only one in the car. he drove through me and then wrote off the saab covertible on my left and his car as well. Took off from the lights real easy and had moved only about 5 metres and the next thing I know I am facing the other way with a curtain airbag in my face. Didnt even see the prick coming. Had very sore ribs for 2 weeks and they took me to a different hospital than the other 2 caus I wanted to kill him.The police said to my wife "he's a bit out there".
I am still here though

Glad to hear it, mate. I don't blame you for wanting to kill the bloke. I would have been the same.

hi all . New here and new to home car maintenance. Ive got same issue , changed front Inlet O ring and Rubber squiggly seal and thought that will do it, but now ive discovered Coolant leaking at back of the motor (glad its red/pink) makes it easier to find.

hey guys i went to holden n couldnt find anything wrong yesterday,... today as i was driving i got the ENGINE WARNING LIGHT

took it straight to holden.... hope they freakin fix it because im tired of taking my car in for warranty issues...... WHATS HAPPEND TO GOOD QUALITY CARS these days? r most of them lemons? or is it the service department leaving apprentices to work on our cars that we pay top dollar for?
yes GM dropped the ball on Qaulity , nice to drive but the amount of small things breaking or malfunction has put me off GM for life .
