head gasket maybe??
Is it giving out white smoke when you rev it?

[Mike]

water pump mite be fcuked.

[Philsutton]

if there are no leaks i would suggest that the head gasket had gone

[Gunzi]

Fill it up with water and run it, if the coolant turns to mayonnaise then the head gasket is gone as the water is mixing with oil + the white smoke outta the exhaust.

[rikih]

its strange tho, no water inside! i thought it could be the head gasket but there is no mayo on the filler cap?! we disconnected the heater and this stopped the leaking but still if it is the heater where is the water going?

[James B]

it could be leaking out the matrix then, means that youll be gettin soggy carpets soon

you dont always get the "mayo". smelling the coolant tank, this may indicate it as well.
