I dont like weepin coolant full stop,especially after i just finished cleaning the shite off my entire exhaust,including the tailpipe lol, from a drain bolt leak last week.
so weepin is a sign of failing components?

definately sounds like a water pump.. I hate doing water pumps on fwd cars.. NO FKN SPACE!!!!!
Thanx for all the suggestions. I'm try the suggestion of running it with the timing belt cover off and see if i can see the leak. If not, I'll have to get a pressure test done to see if i can find the leak ........
Keep u guys posted.
How did you go with this problem? I just noticed a leak in exactly the same spot on my LS. I figure it's the water pump too but I haven't taken the timing belt cover off yet. Be nice to hear if you sorted your problem out.
OK, I know this is dragging up an old thread, but for the sake of other people who have had the same issue I thought I would post an update. I finally got around to changing the timing belt/water pump and found that the water pump seal was leaking causing a tiny bit of coolant to push upwards into that little "ditch". My water pump was doing this for years with no problem or visible loss of coolant.
