Hi all,
apologies is this is a very dumb question but have spent the past couple of hours reading through old posts and couldn't find an answer.
I have just acquired a 2010 Mk7 2.2TDCI transit which has been through the wars a bit with 240k on the clock.
It has just had an MOT (before I got it) with two advisories, one for an oil leak and one for a coolant leak.
The coolant leak looks to be a bit more worrying in the immediate future as I can see the levels dropping pretty quickly over a couple of days.
Looking in the engine bay I can see some weeping of what looks like coolant from the highlighted corroded part in the picture below. Could any of you shed some light on what part it is and what the scale of job a replacement / repair would be?
I have literally no idea about engines etc. so just trying to get an idea of whether it is worth taking to the garage and what to expect when I get it there.
Any help much appreciated!
Cheers
