Overheating light on.

Hi just check, it's empty but think it's flow out just now. Now after topping up full with water, aircon back to cool. Fan is working also. Need to monitor where leak.

Huh? You still want to try luck to continue driving? If I where you, I would have call tow truck and tow to workshop to check what is the problem. If you think that o overheat, just let it cool down top up with water and continue drive a.d monitor would be okay. You are putting yourself into great risk of damaging the engine and cost of repair will be much higher then calling tow truck and fix the coolent issue.

At the workshop now. Just change the top cover only. Total damage $100 plus.

Did you drive to workshop or call row truck? If you drive to workshop even if you let it cooled down and top up with water, the risk of damaging the engine is high. This time nothing happen you really lucky. Next time if it happen again, you may not be so lucky. Correct thing to do is to stop car immediately, call tow truck and don't bother to open up bonnet to check as there is nothing much you can do. I mean you open up and noticed coolent is empty, you top up, but few minutes of driving issue may surface again or even worst. By then it's too late if it affects your engine.
