Water leak

Could be an air trap, but it could also be knckered engine liners.

Or both.

That's quite a loss for liners. Isn't the HSE a 4.6 I think it is only the 4.0 which has the liner problem or am I misinformed?

Can be either.

Best way to check for liners is whip out the plugs, any that are mega clean & you have a problem of liners or head gaskets.

Mine are always clean - run on LPG

Thanks for the info folks, mine is also an LPG and is the 4.0 litre auto. I have had a look at the plugs and they are as would be expected, dirty. Thats good aint it? (He asks hopfully).

Yes.. dirty is good!

Have a look at the very front & back galley on both sides of the heads to block, they leak like f*ck there.

Check hoses for leaks too.

Went for a 40 mile drive on the motorway today. got back left the car for an hour and checked the water level. It has not dropped since Sunday so it looks like it was an air lock? What I have noticed today as it was rainging very hard, was that the blower did not do such a good job on the windows as it did before the matrix was replaced. Hoping to Gawd that it does not have to go back.

It isn't set to recirculate is it in all the excitement of changing the matrix?

That will soon mist it up.

I will double check that button in the morning but I do not think so. Will update tomorrow.

Hi Lee, just letting you know that the recycled air was NOT switched on.

Al is well now, do not know what happened but I have just been out and tried every vent in turn and it is working OK. No more water needed either so maybe I can have a good run now? LOL
