Car leaking coolant

[EDM95]

As i was walking to my car i noticed it was leaking something. So i went to check it out and i seen that it was leaking from a hose behind the engine that was just sitting on top of another hose but it was not connected to anything, does any one know what it could be connected to?

Can you post a picture of the hose in question. Is it a fairly large diameter hose like the ones that run to the heater core. Or is it a smaller coolant hose like the ones that run to the throttle body?

It is a thick hose

I dont have a camera but if someone could take a pic of the back of your engine birds eye view i would be able to point out the hose.

Are you sure that it is water that the car is leaking. Could it be fuel?

I noticed water dripping from my engine one day, turns out to be condensation from my air conditioner. I believe the water came from just behind the oil cap.. in that area. Not sure if it comes out of a hose tho..

no it is green so it is antifreez
the hose looks like it is coming out of the fierwall

a picture of a turbo dsm is't going to work, his profile says N/T. If its coming out of the firewall, thats your heater core in or out.

Look in the area where the hose is at for something that looks like it should have a hose attached to it. Just poke around more and see what you come up with.

^^^^
on the 4g63's they come out of the firewall and connect to the T-stat neck area, pritty much where all the other coolent comes in and goes.

That really doesn't help the OP seeing as he has a n/t.

that's a tight space so it's pretty hard to get to. I've been looking to see what it connects to but see nothing. i will try to get a pic
