Ok, well.the connectors were like £14 each so not too bad, doing then fri,

The right arrow is where the big drip came from the other day and the left arrow is where had a steady drip when got back from work today, unless because it hotter as was driving bit longer than normal

Looking at the right arrow, it could be the pipe connected to it isn't making a good enough seal.

Ah ok,

Shall I stick with trying these 2 new connectors/couplings 1st then of still.happening, pipes?

They seem hardish to find , when I find ones that look similar i get the "doesnt fit your car"

But also had that before on a part and worked fine but obvs I want to get proper pipes, starting to get rather annoying with the topping up, coolant smell etc lol
