dear fellow vanagoon, i have a 90 carat with what sounds like the identical problem!!!!! after a drive there develops a puddle of coolant below the oil filter/oil cooler/water pump. my pump was replaced by the dealer at 50,000 miles and appears not to leak. Coolant leak can be traced back to the oil cooler housing. Thats as far as i have investigated. there is however two coolant hoses that feed the cooler? or the cooler could leak or the water pump. Let me know what you find...... Scott Gregory 90 wolfsburg carat (red) 88 fox 67 drag beetle 63 resto bug 62 sunroof resto bug
