I am going to have to dealer it now. If they find its the pump, I will ask they pre-cautionary change thermostat too.
No, it didn't spray all over. It was a small leakage, and I saw a puddle on the floor after letting the car sit overnight. Lost about 0.7 liters of coolant (measured after filling it up). I would guess yours has a different problem to mine.
