Smile Hello

I bought my 7th Jag recently and could not be more proud of the 2002 xk8 convertible in carnival red. I have previously owned a 420, xj6, xj12, a sport and an xjr, but this is a lovely ride; on a par with my all time favorite jag the 98 XJR.
It has problems, coolant leaks and a brake master cylinder that needs replacing, or a seal kit. Any problems are always forgiven when I drive it with
I would like to know if anyone has any experience of a continual overflow of coolant to the overflow bottle. After suspecting the heater core I isolated it with a short circuit pipe, with no change. I now suspect the small electric motor that helps the circulation of the coolant mounted on the fire wall. Does anyone have any experience in this area?
