I never use them so I wouldn't worry about it.
Hope it just needs tightening and isn't a bad signBeen out for a longer drive to Chester.. buggrit.. coolant pîssing outneed to tighten the new hose to the water pump in the morning
Hope so and also hope it doesn't all drain into the road overnight!! I haven't got any more antifreezeDon't fret cause it is
Sod that!!!Couple of bottles of vodka instead

I see you took the precaution of having a rescue car escort you
Well, i can see regular bubbles in the expansion tank but on the other hand it doesn't seem to be over pressurising and there's no further leak that i can tell.
I've run it up to temp and done a few miles in 3rd to keep the revs high, then let it stand idling for 10 mins. Top hose isn't rock hard.

See we were right. A good tight un and all will be wellDefinitely needed tightening, that's crap britpart rubber hoses that go soft and loose shape

It's still blowing bubbles and the level isn't dropping, doesn't seem to gain undue pressure thoughSee we were right. A good tight un and all will be well
Does it need another burp?
Possibly
