How can coolant get into suspension

gstuart · Jul 8, 2022

Might have some trouble lifting the body off , lol,

rear leak might be from ur 3rd row heating / cooling , system , maybe one of the pipes / seals leaking , hoses running front to back, would check inside the boot area , behind panels etc , then get a jack and remove the rear wheel to see if u can see anything

could also have a look on the D5 forum to see if there’s been a recall

Hope that helps a little

It's most likely to be a leaking heater hose, if it's loosing coolant?

Good luck with that,

it doesn't have a separate body on a chassis, it's a monocoque just like almost every other car on the road. It has removable subframes though. However is the heater pipes are internal, I can't see why anything underneath needs removing.
Try taking it to someone that actually knows what they are on about.
