check the heater control valve and the right side end tank at the top for leaks, both the weakest links in the system.
Replace the cap when home

One of the smaller hoses to the water bridge was loose (at least that's what it sounded like to me). Just tightened the clamp and all is well per Steve.

Good to hear. Also good that he is in Eastern Ohio and not Eastern PA (at the moment) as he is running a good few hours behind that rainstorm that you had last night. It should wash the road all the way home for him and he'll miss it all. It's due in on the Jersey Shore within the hour if it hits.

I hope he runs over Snooki with his new 928...

That would be a waste of a perfectly good nine two eight.

I'm pretty sure she'd do little damage. There's not much to that girl...

It might be worth the sacrifice.

Ok...I'm home, the car is in the garage.

12 hours and 650 miles in the rain and I was smiling the whole way...well that is until the red exclamation light came on then the coolant light came on...

Well luckily I got it fixed...Andrew didn't tighten a hose properly...err..well it musta just came loose.

The few pix I have are coming next.

Thanks to all of you guys for the fun comments and sharing my excitement.

Special thanks to Andrew who was the perfect host with great cold beer.

Pix next.
