Default Spotted a pink coolant spots under my coolant tank... probably some leakage...

Came to work and didn't find any new spots... It looks like it sprayed a little, and then it stooped. Pretty weird... I'll go to the dealer on Monday. Hopefully it won't leak more during the weekend.
Does anybody had the same problems?
Thanks

Default I think the tank has a overfill/high pressure relief valve that drains bellow the tank..

If you want we're getting together tommorow come on by..

Default It could be one of the hoses that leads toward/away from the tank...

Had it on my A6 4.2, took the dealer 3 times to fix, even though I told them it was the hose, they replaced the tank and tightened the hose clamp, no good, needed a new hose.
Slow leak, but plenty of pink crap soiling my nice engine. No big deal, add some more if it gets below the "min" level, until it gets fixed.
