Hi, I'm new to the Landy Forum so hello all!! I'm a total novice when it comes to cars and engines and I'm in need of some help! First off, I have a '98 1.8 Freelander Softback. Recently, I have been losing a lot of coolant/water but with no evidence of leakage on the drive, etc. So this morning I got undrneath and noticed that the 'plate' covering the underside of the engine did have a couple of damp oily looking patches on the underside. So I wiped it down and put my fingers through the holes to see if I could come across anything and came across this piece of plastic. I'm now thinking that it's maybe this that has caused me to be losing water. I'm having to fill the expansion bottle at least every other day/100 miles and I'm just hoping it's not a major problem. Does anyone know what this is and what it does?? All help would be very much appreciated!!
Thanks
