Well, car started spraying coolant out the back side of the engine yesterday morning and today I'm trying to figure out where from.
I've got the heatercore hoses removed, hoses to the throttle body, and so far I haven't seen a single tear in any of the hoses. I've pressure checked them as well. Has anyone had a coolant leak from a metal hose? I am very skeptical that I would spring a leak in the turbo coolant line and couldn't feel anything on that line but who knows. I checked my dipstick as well and could see no coolant residue so I dont' assume that the HG is bad. Also, I'm still getting a weird thump that is speed related. Both cv axles were replaced to no avail. I haven't been able to tell if having the clutch engaged/disengaged affects it but it doesn't seem like it. Any idea of what it may be? Once the summer kicks in I'm going to tear the entire car apart and see whats up but i'd like an idea. -Patrick
