On the way to work today I noticed some coolant smell and steam coming from under the hood. I checked at work and there was coolant on the passenger side of the engine. I stopped off at NAPA on the way home and got a couple of gallons of premix, filled the reservoir in the parking lot, and it was dry when I got home--the temperature redlined about a block from the house.
I can't find any obvious hose problems and it's too dark outside now to tro ubleshoot. My first guess is the upper heater hose coming loose from its a ttachment on the block.
FWIW, the dealer supposedly replaced all hoses at 75,000 miles--it's at 120 ,000 now. I know he missed the little short bypass hose that you have to p ull the water pump to change because it broke around 100,000 and I replaced both it and the water pump at that time.
I intend to crank it up tomorrow morning and let it warm up and see if I ca n see where it's leaking.
Any other thoughts?
