see the leak? around the black piece.


it's not leaking from here. Just dripping from above and coming down here.

 

that pic is of the trans. but if its near the oil pan like you said, it may be the hose that goes to the coolant to oil heat extanger (fancy for oil cooler) I think you can replace both the hose and the cooler, not sure where to start looking.

 

I got the car checked out by a mechanic and he says there is a plastic flange that needs to be replaced. It is worn out and letting coolant pass through it.

Can somebody show me where it is in the engine, so I can change it by myself rather than pay him $200 to do this?

He said the platsic flange is in the back of the engine, where the coolant temperature sensor is. He says the plastic flange connects to a metal line afterwards.

Can anyone tell me the part number also? Thanks in advance!

 

I checked out the ECS Tuning website, and looked under the flanges section. The only flange there is the cylinder head cooling flange. Is this the flange I need?
