645ci Back to owning a BMW

[JackBean 645ci]

Hello all Bimmer owners club members

After a long time away from BMW and a long time of company car use, I have rejoined the BMW flock with a nice small, cheap, economic 2004 645ci...:-)

Quick question to all of those who may know- Every time i get back to the car a puddle of water is found underneath, quite large. The cooling system holds pressure at 2bar with engine warm without any drop in pressure... yet clearly it has a leak, 

Its not aircon drainage, doesnt seem to be using much water either which is bizarre

any hints before i take it to my local shylock and have my wallet bled before my eyes?

Hi John....welcome to the Forum

Hope you find a cheap solution to the coolant leak
It could well be AirCon discharge as around this time of year there would be a huge amount of condensation build up inside and if the AirCon is set to recirculate then there is every likelihood that it could be that.

Let us know how you get on with it
