Hello I think I’ve got a classic coolant leak so will hazard a guess that I need a water pump. Obviously I will get it looked at by a mechanic before replacing it.

I know usually people say that you might as well change a cam belt when you change the water pump. I don’t seem to be able to find any information about whether the cupra 280 is belt or chain? Does any one know for sure??

Think I have the same look like it’s very very very slow leak and it’s at the front on the engine under by the throttle intake

No it’s very very slow I have topped it up as it had dropped about 2mm on the max level about 6 weeks ago and it’s just about the same again I have been in traffic and stuff no problem just had look over and noticed water on bottom engine
