Gave the car a good rinse under the bonnet last night, checked this morning and all was dry, got to work after a spirited drive and it seems to be the turbo oil cooler pipes as the puddle on the under tray was back and looked like moisture on the hose's to the cooler thanks 960kg, will never doubt you again!!!!!

Next question, assume these look easy enough to fix, but is the enough hose to cut an inch off a re fix? or am i looking at replacing the complete hose? if so how easy is this.

Thanks again for you help.

Cheers Mark
