i h ave read sveral posts about this problem but many for the 1.8petrol
i have the 2ltr xdi estate v reg and have recently found that the water just keeps disapearing. i top up the header tank to the mark then with in the next two days its totaly empty, car doesnt seem to be over heating and i cant see where any water is leaking from and no spots on drive way.
when i top it up i can litterly put 4 or 5 pints in at a time and it will drain down and fill up but then gone again.
no slugde in oil and coolent is clear what there is of it.
noticed the point about the heater matrix so will check that out but any any other ideas would be greatly recieved. thanks alot guys
 
passenger footwell. Heater matrix is prone to leaking :(.

coolant header tank cap - just get a new one.
coolant header tank - known to split - hairline cracks.
