OK I pulled my car out of the garage yesterday when I got out of the car to go back and shut the garage I noticed a trail of drips going down my driveway. I pulled it rite back into the garage and jacked it up to find out that there was coolant leaking from where the tranny and the engine connect (I'm not sure of what that is called). Can somebody please tell me what's going on with my car and why it's leaking coolant!! I'm freaking out!!!!!!!

one of the hoses back at the rear of the block is not securly connected. have fun! you will have to do some hand-gymnastics to get that back together. those are the biggest PITA.

i had coolant leaking from around the same area and it was my water pump going bad. the fluid just worked its way back and dripped off right there. feel around under your water pump and if you feel any coolant you have your problem.

I hope I'm not insulting your intelligence, but make sure it is in fact coolant. That location sounds awfully like the A/C evaporator core condensate drain.

It could be the coolant hoses on the back on the engine, crack or busted,or where those hoses connect to the firewall to the heatcore. Or it might even be a busted heater core, which does happen.
if it's coolant, and it's coming from back there, it has to be one of these things, take a look and try to figure it out.

it is definately coolant especially considering the fact I took the AC out. Thanks for all the replies I will check it out.
