Engine Coolant Leak - Ford Focus 1.4

[jake.am.alexander@hotmail.]

Hi all,

Last week I noticed my temperature gauge shot up to the red and the powertrain warning lamp light came on. Checked under the hood and saw my engine coolant tank was empty, despite it being fine a week or so before.

Topped up the coolant having let the car rest overnight and realised it was flowing straight out of the bottom, but i've no idea where from.

I've attached a photo showing the coolant leaking. If anyone can shed some light on this and give me some guidance as to what might be happening here, that would be great.

Thanks,

Jake
