Picked up my new Corsa yesterday, im sure you all know the car: http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=519053&page=2

To cut a long story short, it overheated on the way home on the M62. Got back to discover a split hose, so today ive purchased a new one, fitted and drove it all day, then tonight decided to drive over to Manchester, got back to discover another water leak, does anybody have any ideas what could be causing this? Or is it just sheer unluckyness and just general wear and tear (as i keep telling myself thats what it is).

Thanks

If I were you I would replace all the hoses as it seems they must be old and worn

Best bet would be to try for some roose motorsport ones or the likes, failing that, they cant be much from vaux?
