Mash 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2008 Hey, just wondering if anyone has any knowledge of what this may mean. An evo4 is overheating, and we may think it is a water leak (new water is put in and the water just disappears.) So to my knowledge this means a water leak, am i stuffed? Will it coast a lot to get fixed? Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2008 it could be simple, or something more sinister... have you checked all the coolant hoses and hose clamps? thats where to start... look for hoses mis-shaped and swollen or cracked, and loose clamps or where the hose is not securely on. Hope that helps Cheers Tomo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope that helps Cheers Tomo will have a check tomorrow, any where you would recommend me to take the evo to get a check before purchasing? That would give me full detail? and what is the site to check number plates? cheer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
