I have a 2006 Saab 97X 4.2 a.k.a. Chevy trailblazer and there’s coolant leaking from behind the power steering pump near the engine. When I say behind, I mean, if you’re looking at the power steering pump from the passenger side tire. The water pump was done recently and VIP auto said that it wasn’t the water pump. They claimed that it was the transmission cooler lines but these all seem fine.

Weird problem. 2012 Prius, 145k miles. Oil changed religiously at every 10K, 0W20 full synthetic. Never driven at low coolant levels. Sudden loss of coolant on the highway. drove 200 miles one way, no problem. on the way back, stopped at every rest area to add DI water, i.e. every 30 miles or so. In each case, there is still some water in the plastic tank. Engine runs smooth, accelerates smooth, purrs like a cat. No white water vapors in the exhaust. Took apart the front, and looked for pink residue around connections and radiator seal lines. No pink residue. Rubber hoses are tightened with original spring clamps, but no pink leaks. Electric water pump is clean. However, there is pink residue at the back of the plastic overflow tank, the firewall and the drive shaft. Sometimes the leak is so big, that it ends up on the front passenger tire and the passenger side doors. How does it go from inside to the OUTSIDE the vehicle is a mystery. Check engine never shows up. The high temperature light comes on and off, sometimes flashing, sometimes solid, then disappears. Driving around town seems no loss so far. Planning to do a pressure test and exhaust fumes test later on today. No puddles of coolant under the car.

My car is at the mechanics right now. Before it was dropped off I got under the car and recorded with my phone the leak, coolent is dripping about every 2 second to 5 second onto the ground. It first drops down ftom the water pump area and then onto a hose close to the front of the vehicle then drops to the ground. I have to fill the reservoir up to the line every day about a cup. On my phone when I press record to record the video my flashlight comes on really bright so I can really get a good look under the car to see where the drip was coming from. I followed it up to the water pump. The mechanic is saying its the radiator? So, how can it be the radiator leaking when on my video I can clearly see it dripping from the water pump area. The radiator look dry. Any thoughs? Car is at the mechanics now.
