Angry Jaguar XK 2007 water leak

Have a water leak, my assumption, with rusty fluid dropping down onto the drivers side front suspension forward mounting bushing. A few drops on the garage floor that are not oily but more watery. Dark brown fluid.
Very difficult to see where it is coming from, any ideas. Mileage is 46,000 in pristine condition.
my assumption is radiator hose but cannot even see this.
await the experts opinion.

Welcome to the forums Browns Lane,

Good to have you with us.

OAT (Extended Life) Coolant is orange and it looks like rusty fluid when it leaks. The engine cover will have to be removed to check for the source.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk-xkr-x150-33/ to the X150 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the Canada Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/canada-73/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
