'It will need a new hose before long' - what does that mean please? :)

its the hose that goes into engine(water hose) at the moment it loses water when you put the heating on , if you dont use heating you dont lose water . apparently its a cheap fix but a bit a pain to do , i think you have to take manifold off (gozz might be able to explain it better if he doesnt mind ) that is not the reason for selling car . im a london cabbie and am buying a new cab thats why im selling . im still using it everyday and having no problems with it at all .

Pikey.
Rich thinks it's the hose connected to the steel water pipe running between the heads under the inlet manifolds and fuel rail.It is impossible to get behind the engine with the intake gear in situ,therefore a fair bit of stripping down is necessary.I don't know why use of the heater should affect the leak as the circulation is perpetual I believe.
