Here is the scenario, was out for a short drive and upon returning home and dropping the pops off he noticed a large puddle under my car. he called me immediately and told me this was going on. I drove home right away, and my belts seemed to be squealing, i checked the original puddle and yep, coolant and oil... Ok

I pulled into the garage and popped the hood and jacked up the car, i cant seem to find anything catastrophic. I ran the car until hot and looked for more leaks, no deal.. nothing.

I looked under and there was a substantial amount of oil and coolant leaking from the turbo side of the engine, making me think its turbo line related.

Coolant in radiator is still green and nice, oil in engine is still nice and brown and thick..

Should i just rip the S14UT appart and see whats going on?

have u done any repairs to that area lately? i'd try the lines check if they just need a little tightening.

No not to lines, just new power steering rack but thats not leaking.

I did install an ACT 6 puck, and im having alot of chatter that being considered do you think the strain caused by the engine rotating could cause one of the lines to come loose or break?

Looks like the water pump is shot along with the front main seal. Time for some replacement parts!
