Morning Guys, Came home late last night to have the engine stall when coming into the driveway. Looked at temp guage and it was up high but not all the way up. Checked overflow tank and its dry. Let it be for the night and checked it this morning. Filled it up and started engine, no water started pouring out of overflow so i am assuming the head gasket is fine. Looked underneath car and there is a constant drip of water coming out. Looks to be coming from right near the oil filter area. Does anyone know what in this area has water? Maybe a water pump or something? Any help would be fantastic as i need to get this sorted asap, dont resort me to driving the GF's Tiida :( Cheers forkus

Ash, there is a wee pipe there on the Ej22's. I think from memory it was a brass one with a rubber hose. It's not running down off the cross over pipe is it? You know the drill, If you have any issues shoot around and I'll stick my head under it.
