I`ve noticed over the last few weeks I`ve been losing coolant out of the expansion tank, had a good look around the engine and found water dripping off of the exhaust manifold/turbo flange.

So when I fiited the 19T I thought the problem had gone as I thought the leak was coming from the turbo but just been out to look at the water level and it`s dropped. With the aid of a torch looking down the back of the engine the exhaust manifold is wet on cylinders 4 and 5.

At first I thought it was the head gasket but the exhaust manifold is above the head gasket, so does anyone have any ideas where the leak could be ????

Water pump leaking getting on timing belt getting onto belt cover running out onto top of engine?.
Steel water pipe rusted out that feeds turbo ?.
