Hi all,

I’ve got a ‘95 +8 (UK spec) here in the US which I’ve imported some years back. Noticed a slight coolant leak on the center console forward of the gear stick and I’m assuming the heater matrix has had it. Wondering how difficult this is to remove and if there’s anyone making replacements as Rutter’s said they’re NLA from the factory. I guess could possibly be hoses too but I’ve not looked up under the dash yet to see the arrangement so I don’t even know if the hoses protrude into the cockpit at all or if they connect under the bonnet. Thanks and much appreciated for any help.

Aaron

Photos would help us . Are you sure it is coolant? he screenwash tubing often fails and that is on the firewall above the tunnel.

K-Seal failing was because my wife talked me out of it. Took cart to local specialist, ended up putting a heater core from a 1995 Lotus Elise in it, which exactly fit. No leaks now!
