I have a coolant leak problem coming from the CBV area which got progressively worse. I did my coolant leak research on the internet and was pretty sure the CBV was the culprit. Got the part and tools and replaced it myself today, put everything back together, filled up overflow tank but I have exactly the same problem as before :(. The CBV had to be replaced anyway. I put in a whole gallon of antifreeze only to see it all leaked out from a drain hole on the passenger side somewhere in the middle, between front and back passenger seats. I have a 2001 9-5 wagon 2.3T. I can't see anything leaking from the front and can't figure out where the leak could be coming from / caused by. It's as though I was pouring antifreeze down a drain hole when I filled up the reservoir. Any idea anyone? Can't seem to find anything on the internet other than replacing the coolant bypass valve, which I did.
