I reckon it's this too. Either that or it's above your alternator. Just needs to be tightened up.

The problem is if it's under the water pump service needs to take your exhaust and turbo off to get to it.

Chris, I suffered this same thing and it turned out to be an o ring on the water pump, mine was dripping down onto something hot (dealer said what it was but cant remember) and evaporating straight away, next time your going for a drive open all the air vents and windows and check for a burning coolant smell.

Dazza.

cool thanks guys. I haven't noticed any trany fliud in the overflow chamber so here's hoping it's not that. I'll have to book it in.

Think I'll get the premo brake TSB done while it's in. The brake squeal is really starting to me!!!
