Good Morning
A sudden coolant leak has occurred and its quite bad.
I have source where its leaking from but I can't quite work out what part I need or what solution I can take
Thoses two hoses connect to something behind that padding. Any ideas what it is and how much of pain it is to access and fix?

These pipes are the flow and return to/from the cabin air heater matrix, I have been lucky and never had to deal with that issue, but there are, I think, seals that are on the areas these pipe stubs connect to, and refitting them after replacing the seals can be a complete nightmare - or has been for some people. Like lots of jobs, I'd think that if you have done this job a few times then you know what to expect and can handle this issue, but for the rest of us it could be a bit annoying - good luck!

Thanks I just managed to get it out of the car and all it was failed O ring, which was pain because I could of just unbolt it from the engine rather interior [emoji22]
