Simple one this change the coolant tank cap expansion cap if the seals gone it wont pressurise and will force the coolant out the cap it didn't need the majority of the above the only other two things I theres a device right hand side at headlight that's s coolant bypass if that's faulty it will cause issues and the y piece pipe into the water pump has a second thermostat
