Already figured out which one it was, noticed the g12 label on it. Don't think it needs replacement, and they probably did a flsuh (or at least a refill ) when I got my TB changed.

So I was peaking under the hood to listen to my cylinders and O geez a frkin threaded hose is leaking.

I can hear the air wooshin out of it, So i taped it up for now. Gonna try to replace tomorrow, not sure where the other end goes ? Anyone?

btw saw a new porsche gt2 today on the streets, used to be my dream car. Now I'll settle for my exige S.

Thanks alot guys.

that's one of ur vacuum hoses. replace it with a rubber one and also replace the clamp.

yep, rubber hose will do just fine. Those threaded rubber hoses always go to shit. They get hard and brittle over time.

I haven't peaked at it today in the light, but where does the hose go to? I see it going under the manifold then bye bye...

That was a PIA hose to replace! Took me about an hour total. I was in the dark with a flash light though, and most of the time was thinking of a way to access the other end of the hose. It ended up going under the manifold inwards towards the cabin. I had to loosen up the yellow container and make good use of some pliers. But its all better now.

I am going to assume that the coolant was low due to a long trip to vegas...it will let me sleep better at night.

Thanks for the help.
