Soooo driving to work this morning I notice that my temp gauge is a little higher than halfway. Check the coolant and of course the overflow is low. I check it out later this afternoon and this is what I'm seeing as strange as it is

Let the car idle looking for leaks. Nothing. Until... The fans kick on and I notice coolant drops pretty rapidly from underneath. I get underneath to check it out and it looks like its dripping from the oil pan on the driver side. I check my oil and it looks completely normal but what's dripping is pure coolant no mixture. It looks like its coming directly from where the lower oil pan is connected to the upper.

Anywho I take off the intake and pull out a spot light to get a better look from above to see if I see any possible leaks.... Nothing. Although this time I was starring at the same spot I saw the first time and like clockwork when the fans come on its starts dropping like crazy from the same spot I see nothing wet above but saw in real time it start from in between the pans. I'm so baffled

HELLLLPPPPP!!!!!!.....lol

I'm really close to being done with the g world. It's been nothing but nightmares from day one. I finally bought my first mod after I thought I was finally done with repairs but now I don't think I'll ever have ambition to install

 

 

what year of your G and how many mileages so far?

 

you don't see any leak at all on the back side of the engine?

 

04 g with 79k. Current motor has 7k and no leak that I could see. I mean obviously it has to be coming from somewhere and not the oil pan but I'm really not seeing where

 

Might be that it's leek into the radiator fan, check there.

 

But I'm not seeing any transfer of fluid whatsoever. I literally see nothing and then see it dripping like crazy. I took the intake off to get a better view and watched from above and I see nothing

 

when you take off the intake, look under and behind the throttle body because I know there's a hose there that transfers coolant...what mods do you have on your car if any?

 

No mods and will try that after work

 

The fix is simple. Pressure test the system with a vacuum. Then take into consideration it only does it when the fans are on... It is either the radiator or... a jacked up hose at the front side of the block. Thats why it only drips when the fans are on. Check all hoses and ratiator and then... next check is freeze plugs on the block

 

Unfortunately it's raining like crazy today so I'm going to have to wait till the weekend to tinker. Also I have a guy driving from about an hour away that specializes in these cars to check it out. Thanks everybody for your help this far

 

wish you luck!

 

Probably a bad hose.

 

Is there an echo in here?

 

^ lol. Quick retard question. Is this something I can do or do I have to go to a shop?
