Default Searching for Coolant leak!


I'm not entirely sure what hose this is underneath the snout and thermostat housing is. Im trying to tackle a coolant leak, and I notice a bit of water/coolant sitting in this area.

I should preface this that my engine overheated.

That’s one of the 2 heater hoses underneath the blower that has to come off to replace.

Did both cooling fans turn on? Make sure both of them turn on when the A/C is on as a quick test. If so, maybe the thermostat stuck closed?

A2B makes a good point, and make sure your water pump is not leaking.
If so that could be your main culprit.
