Update: So, my puma was due its cambelt change this year which I had done a couple of months ago along with the water pump. Used a good local garage. I noticed a water leak in the autumn and used engine stop leak but it only gave temporary relief so I thought the cambelt water pump change might...

My coolant tank is empty now over the space of a few hours. I got back to my car and found a large puddle under it and it was dripping fairly fast. Any ideas? Someone said maybe its the water pump .

mot passed! £200 all in (mot cost, engine stop leak and sill repair) woop!

its due its cambelt too -_-

thanks red for the reply, and as a female vet nurse im not hot on terminology of car repairs :P so the best thing to do would be a patch up for the time being?

Hi Guys My puma is currently undergoing an MOT and I have just heard from the garage about the fault/s: The ONLY thing the car has failed its MOT on is rusting of the rear seals where the car is jacked up. He said there are holes in the seals both sides of the car with the near side being...

Some photos I've taken:

Its dripping once every 10mins or so from one place (although shining a light underneath shows oil coating loads of stuff). Question: what is the thing that looks like a Chinese finger trap? Woven material pipe on the drivers side underneath? Runs between wheel and oil pan That's what it...

Mind you ... Its doing a fine job of breaking itself currently!

But I might break the car haha!! :P

Thanks rob, I just got myself a pair of bulbs. I'll be rubbish at fitting them so I'll probably ask Luke to do it for me :) thanks x

Thanks I'll try that in a minute :) sounds an expensive fix... X

Thanks rob! I see people recommend the ultra brilliance bulbs now as opposed to extreme brightness that I used before? Is there much improvement? Also.. Any ideas on oil leaks :P? X

Ha yes had problems with halfords telling me I was wrong before. My passenger dipped bulb has just gone. Do I need to replace in pairs? And how do I do it.... (Tremona did my last set) X

Why do you need to buy four bulbs? X

Hi Routine check on my oil recently (within last 3weeks) revealed low oil so I topped it up to Max normal. Noticed oil patches where I park my car recently so checked oil this morning and below minimum already. Topped it up again this morning. Looking underneath and I saw oil drips on the...

Just flew threw mot with no advisories! ... Because it had them all fixed :( brake servo, brake lines, suspension, etc etc small servicing... £725. Plus new set of uniroyal rainsport 2s £240 , tax in august. Mannnnnnn am i just unlucky or ?

:( One thing after another!

My ka had 63k on it when i sold it but half of me wanted to see what happened when it reached 100k.... what would the mileage counter do lol. Yours is the same Did they not anticipate them to get to 100k because my puma is 115! Haha x

If it was me, id fix her. For the fix price you couldnt get another car half as good as a puma. Also, with buying another car you then have all those teething problems of finding out whats wrong with it and what needs replacing. You already know and have addressed these in your puma. If no...
