i've just had a fuel pipe replaced on my car as it was split and leaking fuel, now there is a major water leak but only when the engine is hot, it is coming from the front of the engine at the bottom, its losing about a litre a day. does anyone have any suggestions to what needs to be done? also does anyone know any nissan or zx specialists in the south wales area as my HICAS light is intermitently. cheers.

Water leak bottom of engine? Sounds like a water pump problem.

 

Closest guy for you to have check it out is Paul @ South West Zeds.

Sounds like your water pump,you can replace it yourself if you have some spanner skills, they`re pretty cheap too.Also for hicas check your brake fluid level or is it power steering level? anyway one of the two being low can cause it to come on

I always thought it was the power steering fluid level that makes the hicas light come on? Had that problem in my white zed. Just topped up the fluid, let it settle then the light disappears! :D
