    2001 Excursion coolant leak

    my dads truck has a coolant leak. the hoses all look fine under hood and no leaks there. whatever is leaking its leaking on top of the transmission. anyone got a clue what it could be? it just happened over the weekend.

    thanks for any help.

    Well, hopefully it just whatever hose/fitting is back there. Sounds like a pain though. So odd to have coolant leaking back there. Wish i could be worth more than moral support!

    lol thanks for trying! its not like i know what to do. i was hoping someone had a similar problem. ill see if i can pull the manifold off and see if its that fitting...maybe its the water pump. the truck only has like 115k on it. the more my dad says he wants a new truck more **** breaks lol. his AC dont work either. i checked the AC lines and they arent getting suction to activate the dampers but thats another problem lol.
