hi noticed other day i had low coolant light came on and today running car i had no heat, and no pressure, so i added coolant, but i seen it dripping out, i removed the resivour and see a fine stream coming under the AC compressor, now too dark now to look at it tonight and too cold to take off tire and plastic guard so what could it be? a crack in the engine? damaged gasket? water pump shot? and no the water pump makes no noise like its damaged

this pissing me off i hate this car sometimes LOL

Water pump, bypass hose, something of that nature would be my guess. We can guess all we want, won't help you.

Get a small mirror in there under the leak and see what's happening, if you can.

When you say stream, you mean like a pressurized stream, or just dribbling? Hose pinholes spray, water pumps and gaskets dribble...

I agree with where Jeff is going. A pressuized spray would be a hose, a dribble would most likely be the water pump weep hole. If it's more toward the center of the engine (near the back of the A/C compressor), it might be a freeze plug in the block leaking.

ah ok ill check from what i can see its just a stream like turning water tap on but a fine stream pouring, and it looks from tthe anging its pouring or peeing from near the back under the AC Compressor
