Driving along last night doing a 150mile trip, all was well until 'Check coolant' appeared on the screen.

It was dark so was only able to check today. with the engine bay open I can see that the hose leading from the reservoir into the engine had fallen down and was getting hacked away by the fan (highlighted in red) :eek::eek::eek:

Should there be an additional clip (circled green) holding it up?

I have moved it back up on the slam panel but as you can see it has already cut through (highlighted in blue) and is very slowly leaking. I guess im lucky it didnt rip it in 2 while I was driving along :crazy:



 
+1 for another clip
