    I ve investigated a bit more
    Loads of fluid staining from pas pump top banjo
    Is it a washer replacement fix? Will search forum and try that before doing a bomb

      I think it might be an 'o' ring on top and bottom of the pipe!!! Ive got a Coupe 2.6 and even replacing the bomb didnt stop the warning light coming on

        That's why I m thinking its pump not bomb as the reservoir emptied so quickly, done pump test and got to about 35

          its common for the pumps on v6's to go and leak in the V of the engine.

            Yeh, I heard that
            I have a pump I took off the cab I broke a few weeks back
            That car flashed the light too, but the pump was dry so I think that had
            bomb failure
            I ll go for the o ring first as it can be done easily on the car
            Thanks for comments so far

              Bloody crap main dealers!
              Ordered new seals, banjo bolt and cross head
              Banjo wrong size and cross head was a mounting bolt!
              Will try spare pump and get a know working bomb, if that don't fix it I'll break the car!
              Was going sell it before this started, probably worth more in small pieces anyway!

                  That's probably what's done it, had red stuff in it when I bought it
