So I just replaced the clamps on my T-piece for the antifreeze. Now, it does not leak from there or anywhere that I can see...but somehow I am loosing the antifreeze, especially when parked. I see no stains or anything underneath the car, nor does the oil look milky. Anyone have any ideas?

Also, right below the antifreeze overflow there is a tube that looks like something connected to it, vaccuum line possibly, looks like the other hoses from it are like a black plastic...but it is just open.I will take pictures of it later so I can show. But, if anyone knows what it is, please let me know.

 

It would help if we knew what engine you have.

That hose that goes no where is the overflow drain hose.

 

Sorry. It is a 2.8.

And it has a O-ring around it that looks like something connected to it.

 

Here is a picture of the hose....It connects with the one you see splitting into two.

 

Replace the coolant tank, I can see the cracks, & the dried coolant.

 

I think that hose is a crank case breather off the "spider hose" so basically you have a boost leak. It is not a coolant hose.

 

I see the cracks on the overflow reservior too. I had to replace mine at about 70k.

 

Well the dried coolant is from me having to put more in everyday...and at 5 in the morning with hardly any sleep you tend to spill some.

Where does it connect to, are there any pictures or anything that I can use to replace it? Also what is that hose called the one that I am missing.

Is it bad running without it?

 

Anyone? Please?

 

you need to get that plastic cover off because the problem is most likely under the plenum
