These along with the various squeaks and rattles within the cabin almost wants me to call it quits on the E46
hey... you can borrow the montero - leaking fuel and all - and see how much your love for the E46 grows.
those, fortunately, are easy ones. get a new washer tank - sans headlight washer pump hole - and don't worry about it anymore (i put one of these in the Touring ).
the coolant leak doesn't sound too bad. likely the expansion tank itself - i had one do this.
