whats the best way to check for cooling system leaks? i usually just park it on a flat surface overnight and check the next day but its raining alot so yea gotta wait for that to stop.



The car has had some boost trouble lately but i have solved that i think.(EBCS broke) So the intercooler pipes have been taken off and on and off and on. All dry inside. This kit doesnt have a blow-off valve, it has a diverter/recirc valve. And it is not facing upward, its horizontal.

Ill update later when it stops raining to see if its gone.
Well, maybe it's not unusual for condensation to form under the hood after it's hot and cools down, when the moisture in the air is high? Others may wish to comment.

As far as detecting a cooling system leak, the only way I know is to "look and see".
