Welp I found my coolant leak that showed up last night, and it appears to be comming from the heater hose which goes into the fire wall... but I'm not PRECICLY sure if thats it.. it's really close in there though, is there anything else it could be thats really close to the heater hose, or could it just be a clamp on the heater hose? Or could it be something alittle more dreaded?
Err just incase theres more than one heater hose, it's the one thats around the fuel filter... in this general area.. oh and it's really close to one of the spark plugs.

 

Tried tightening the clamp on the hose and refilling the system abit, all that did when I started up the car was spill more coolant on the ground though
Any help would be super appreciated!

 

Have you tried looking at the hose while the car is on?

 

that heater hose's location sucks. it's right under the oil filter, so crap gets dropped on it, and it deteriorates. Tear it off, and replace it. it will eventually completely split, and your engine might overheat from the loss of coolant.

My heater hose busted on me at an autocross(before it overheated).
I would just replace it.......your gonna need to later anyway.

 

Just replaced her, did it in the dark with nothing but a flashlight... I used some hydrolic grade hose that I had laying around and I pretty much rerouted it so it wouldn't be near anything hot. Looks pretty odd underneith my hood cause it's the only hose thats white. But it does the job, just got back from cruising around town for abit testing her out... unfortunatly I had to refill her oil which is the second time in a couple week time period meaning I got some sort of oil leak.. oh well the problems just keep racking up with the 7... But I have her anyways
