Help!! - gill84 - 07-03-2015

Hi, I have a 306 1.9 TD. I have owned it for 2 years with no issues. However, recently I started noticing pools of coolant underneath the car, it intermittently drops its coolant. Then the radiator light started coming up, but very dim. Its now on brightly and solid. The heaters within the car initially get warm but then blow themselves cold. It has been pressure tested up to 20psi at a garage, no leaks found. Coolant system has been bled, new cap fitted on expansion tank, but the issue is still there. The car itself runs n drives fine. If any of you could provide any help or advice on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks ☺

Either there is a leak, heat and pressure would reveal it, not just pressure.
Has it been blowing out the rad cap?
Any bubbles in expansion tank on idle?

There's no visible bubbles in expansion tank on idle and deffinatly not blowing out rad cap. The garage I use has no ideas either...

we can't do anything to help here, you need to physically check the car for leaks.
