Car runs fine but Im just worried about this leak I have to use car to drive to Allentrown every couple of weeks my daughte has to go the Cancer Center there and its the only option I have.
:confused: Ok new reasonfor this post is I noticed car only leakes when its cold out. I used it all day yesterday parked it about 9pm went out at 7am(weather was about 23 with high winds) and there it was that Damn leak I cant figure it out looked under car(it was leaking(didnt have time to get under it when I got home leak had stopped) car was parked all night that is what is confusing me to no end right now. All the hoses seem fine nothing that I can see or feel in a weak or cracked hose. I have checked the oil not milky its fine. Any ideas need this car tro last at least another 3mons would like longer is I could but dont think She likes me at all. Well thanks for reading this and any help

A/C compressor nothing to do with water leak: usual problem with a/c compressor is free wheeling pulley bearing: I changed mine twice.
One often reported water leak issue is the lower intake manifold gasket...most often with series 2, but you could take a look around that area. Take also a look around the places where former work has been done...I see from your post that there are three areas of concern...all in red........alas work sequels are not rare.
