From what I can see so far my sudden coolant leak appears to be coming from one or two hoses at the front left (nearside) of the engine below the left air intake tube then running down and off the engine undertray which is similar to the OP. I’d be interested to hear how he resolved the issue on his car?

On the next dry and convenient day I'll be removing the air intake tube to get a better look below it....

Can I ask where you got the work done?
My car is a 2013 and I'm thinking of getting this done as the consenses seems to be it's more a matter of when than if the Y pipe will fail.
I also have that knock when you turn the engine off so pretty sure the coupler in the supercharger snout? needs replaced.

Worth having a read through this first...

Thanks, that does indeed sound like mine, and my VIN is in the range mentioned.

In that case (and if you’ve read through the link I provided earlier) you shouldn’t have any concerns.
