When i checked the water i have found what appears to be foam in the watter bottle (header tank) there is no obvious smells,etc etc, no leaks, all the heating is fine, temp gauge fine. i have no idea as to what may be the cause, do you guys?

Can be an early sign of a head gasket failing. Change the coolant and have the air in the header tank sniffed for combustion gases.
