Hi all,
I've just checked all my levels and noticed the engine coolant was a bit low, literally just under the minimum, I left it a while and came back to see if the level had dropped any more (if there was a leak it should have been), while I don't think the level did drop any more, I noticed this pink stain just as I was about to shut the bonnet, I'm relatively clueless with cars, but i thought the pink couldnt be a mere coincidence, does this look like a coolant leak? If not is it serious?
